Wasn't there a film about a mannequin which comes to life and is the object of a young man's desire?

Life imitating fiction, is nothing new. Watch the sky and see the ISS.

I think he should be allowed to marry the mannequin.

He's lucky he chose a mannequin.

There's a young man in Bali who chose a cow . . . . . caught and forced to marry the cow.

This thread would garnered more response if a member of the Catholic Church was involved.

These un -aflicted persons are of no value.

Phhh, children!

There was a Third Doctor story arc back in 1970-something with the same thing. The Doctor had to destroy the giant squid-thingy that made it happen.

When you have been on the air for 40 years you tend to recycle plots. Just look at Star Trek.

Not one of hollywood's finest moments: Mannequin Starring Andrew McCarthy and Kim Cattrall of Sexx and the City fame.

I think that is great. Now the government can collect taxes from him and his spouse. More money for the government.

I don't know if China has the "marriage penalty" in their tax code.
