It's likely that many of you have seen the film "Two Brothers and a Bride", also sometimes called "A Foreign Affair". It follows two brothers who live on a farm. Their mother, who did all the cooking and cleaning, dies and they try to hire a housekeeper. It costs more than they like, so one of the brothers decides to go on a romance tour to find a RW who will cook and clean for them in exchange for getting a visa to come to the US: "We get a housewife for two years and she gets her greencard."
The older brother reads some agency material and tells his younger brother, "A RW knows her place in the home and she's happy with it. Her whole upbringing is schooling for one thing: how to take care of her man."
The movie has so many things that guys in the FSUW search might find interesting, beginning even before the brothers leave for Russia, with the reaction of the librarian when the older brothers ask for help using the internet at the library and he tells her what the site is. You would have thought he wanted to find a hard-core porno site.
The movie features a St. Petersburg tour by A Foreign Affair, an agency that holds socials. The tour operator tells them that on every social he sees lots of guys go for the hottest 20 year old in the room and advises the guys not to do this or they will go home alone.
On their first night at the hotel someone calls and asks if they could send a girl up to their room. One brother answers with why don't you send one up tomorrow when we're not here, thinking the caller is talking about the hotel maid.
The younger brother makes a date with a gorgeous blond girl. He's waiting at the appointed meeting place with his interpreter. When he is surprised that she is twenty minutes late the interpreter tells him this is usual. Russian girls are usually late. Most of the movie was actually filmed in St. Petersburg.
The older brother goes to the apartment one of his leading prospect shares with her father and immediately introduces himself and holds out his hand to shake at the threshold. When the father is told that his daughter will be coming to America to be with both of the brothers he becomes angry and throws the brother out because "he thinks you're a pervert".
The tour operator is fun to watch as he talks to the guys. On the bus he explains that the second and third socials are about creating backups. Ignore girls' pressure on you not to go to them. They know your going will dramatically lower their chances. Toward the end of the tour he tells the guys: a visa will bring her to the US for three months. That's a ninety-day look-see, time for you to figure out if you want to get married.
By the night of the last social the younger brother is rebelling against the older brother's control. He tells him I don't do socials anymore. It's like hunting at a petting zoo.
