East is East (1999)

Comedy - set in 1970's in England. Pakistani family (Father from Pakistan, mother from England) raise seven children. The father stubbornly insists they do things the Pakistani way, including arranged weddings, formal Pakistani dress, and attending mosque services. Both the mom and the kids eventually rebel in a family mutiny. Film works OK as a family drama (some good performances) but not as a comedy - it just is not that funny. 96 min.
