Plot: A poor woman is the beneficiary of a case of mistaken identity in this comedy. Luckless Connie (Ricki Lake) leaves home to move to New York, only to find herself stuck with no job, no money, and a louse of a boyfriend (Loren Dean) who gets her pregnant and abandons her. Despondently taking a train back to Boston, Connie meets Hugh and Patricia Winterbourne (Brendan Fraser and Susan Haskell), a wealthy couple also expecting a baby. Patricia notices Connie admiring her wedding ring, and lets her try it on; moments later, the train jumps the tracks, and Connie wakes up in a hospital to discover that the staff thinks she's Patricia Winterbourne, who died in the wreck along with Hugh. The Boston Winterbournes, led by sharp-tongued Grace (Shirley MacLaine), had never met Patricia, so they have no way of knowing that Connie isn't Patricia. While Connie isn't trying to cheat anyone, it doesn't take her long to realize that this isn't a bad environment for raising her baby, especially after she meets Bill Winterbourne, Hugh's twin brother (also played by Fraser). Mrs. Winterbourne was based on a short story by Cornell Woolrich, previously filmed as No Man of Her Own and J'ai Epouse Une Ombre. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

A Very Enjoyable Movie
Added 7/20/2009

I really like this movie. Clever and cute, it's romantic and comical, with a little bit of mystery. The only issue I have is the amount of cursing in it (it has some, but my personal preference is for a movie to have none).

Dvd, Mrs Winterbourne

This is an older movie, but a really cute "Cinderella" type story. Brendan Frasier is awesome as usual and Ms. Lake is hilarious! Definitely worth watching.

Captivating Dark Comedy
Added 5/2/2009

Ricki Lake plays a homeless/destitute mother-to-be who is befriended by a family of wealth and importance once they believe her to be the widow of one of theirs who has perished in a train wreck. Brendan Fraser and Shirley Maclaine dominate as her "new family", with Brendan this time out playing the stronger-family-member comic role to perfection and Shirley this time out playing the anxious/comic mother responding with an outsized emotional reaction to every little thing her uptight son does. Fraser and Maclaine play a classic 1930's Hollywood comic duo to perfection and keep the film rolling at a sprightly pace until its unexpected ending. All in all an absolute delight even if Ricki Lake, a charismatic television personality in her own right, does not have the spectacular "superstar" comic flair of Fraser and Maclaine at their best. This is a filming of a novel entitled "I Married A Dead Man".
