Dinner at the Beach

I promise to write more detailed stories later, but right now my computer and the hotel internet are having a major disagreement, so while I have a couple of stories under development, this is what I can squeeze in real quick from work. 

The hotel beach side restaurant is called "The Wharf".  It's theme is focused on how contrasting things actually compliment each other.  Meaning how the sun and the sand and the aromas of the beach can compliment foods, etc.  This is their "lead in" to the menu where for each meal, they suggest a wine that will compliment the "complex flavours and aromas of India."  You've seen this before at other restuarants, but here they add a little twist; on each facing page they include photos of famous people with a short paragraph comparing how their contrasting personalities actually compliment each other. 
His Ying to her Yang.
The pictures include John and Yoko, Bonnie and Clyde, Johnny Cash and June Carter, etc.  It really is a nice layout.
On the appetizer page (you can draw your own analysis of why these two were linked with appetizers) is this picture that I had to photograph and post in honor of my two Elises and their favorite movie...

What movie is this?

Obviously, this comment is NOT from my family as the girls often have their own movie night (to counteract the boys movie/sports nights) in which case its a pretty good guess they would be watching this movie ... "Pride and Prejudice" starring none other than Keira Knightley and Matthew Macfadyen.
Anyone a fan of Chick Flicks - or husbands of those who are - would know this.
