Love Hurts (1991)

Taglines: A painfully romantic comedy.

Love Hurts movie storyline. Paul Weaver (Jeff Daniels) and his boozy dad Boomer (John Mahoney) have their long-nurtured grievances and argue constantly in this incredibly dull and charmless comedy drama about a resentment-riddled family reluctantly brought together for a wedding, where Paul pursues a downtrodden homemaker who is quite possibly the most boring woman on earth.

Love Hurts is a comedy-drama film, released in late 1990 in the United Kingdom and 1991 in the United States. Co-produced and directed by Bud Yorkin, it stars Jeff Daniels, Cynthia Sikes, Judith Ivey, John Mahoney, Cloris Leachman, Amy Wright, Mary Griffin, Tom Allen, Annabelle Weenick and Matt Carlton.

Daniels plays a womanizer who goes home to Pennsylvania for a wedding and finds his past catching up with him. The film has been released on DVD by Lionsgate Home Entertainment as a double feature with You Can’t Hurry Love.
