About Portrait of a White Marriage
Now a famous talk show host, Martin Mull takes his crew and cameras to Hawkins Falls, Ohio with the intent to give his erratic career a fresh start by shooting a special. While the residents are only concerned with taking advantage of his celebrity status, Mull falls for former subject and number one fan Joyce Harrison, who's still very much devoted to her husband Hal.
Directed by Harry Shearer, Portrait of a White Marriage leans on a strong ensemble — Martin Mull, Mary Kay Place, Fred Willard — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1988.
