The In-Laws is a hilarious action comedy starring 5-time Emmy Award winner Peter Falk (Columbo, The Brink’s Job, The Princess Bride) as CIA agent Vincent Ricardo and Golden Globe winner Alan Arkin (Catch-22, Grosse Pointe Blank) as dentist Sheldon Kornpett. Sheldon is a dentist from New Jersey, Vincent travels a lot on business. Sheldon’s got a successful practice and Vincent’s got a dubious past. In 48 hours Vincent’s son is marrying Sheldon’s daughter and what happens in between will bring them together for better or worse. Arthur Hiller (Love Story) directs the car chases, gunfights and witty one-liners, extracting perfect chemistry between the two leads as they adventure across South America together.
