Julia Stiles stars as Paige Morgan, a hardworking, pre-med senior at the University of Wisconsin. A local farm girl, she has little interest in romance and is happiest when dreaming of having a future career working for Doctors Without Borders. All of that changes when she meets Edvard (Luke Mably), the crown prince of Denmark, who is posing as a run-of-the-mill foreign exchange student named Eddie in order to escape the prying eyes of the Danish paparazzi and his princely duties. Without the support of his royal mother (Miranda Richardson) and father (James Fox), Eddie takes a job at the bar where Paige works. Despite a disastrous first meeting, Paige slowly succumbs to Eddie's charms and over time the two opposites attract and find true love. However, the romance ends abruptly when Eddie's father becomes ill and Prince Edvard must return home to take over the throne. His true identity revealed, Paige follows him to Denmark and is swept off her feet by the unbelievable life of the royal family. However, when Edvard proposes to her, Paige is forced to choose between her down-to-earth dreams of becoming a doctor and her true love for Edvard in this new millennium Cinderella story. [More]

Reviews for The Prince & Me
...generally remains a cut above the majority of its contemporary romcom brethren - with the dreaded fake break-up handled particularly well (the second fake break-up is kind of pushing it, though).
the script and Martha Coolidge direction are so play-it-safe formulaic that the film lacks fairy-tale luster. It’s as predictable as an Elvis movie—without the music.
As pleasing as The Prince & Me can be, director Martha Coolidge's film delivers nothing to advance the genre.
This attempt at a modern-day Cinderella story is about as PC as a Career Girl Barbie and disappoints due to poor structure, flimsy characterisation and insufficient wit to distract from the above.
A woeful and predictable outing for Cinders and an impossibly twitty prince
A shallow exercise in wish-fulfilment that wants to have its royal wedding cake and eat it too.
A mocinha não precisava ser Ph.D em Dramaturgia, é claro, mas tampouco deveria ser retratada como alguém com Q.I. inferior ao de Forrest Gump.
Pure fairy tale, but it's also charming enough to win us over in the end.
Coolidge wisely works within the confines of the romantic comedy genre and delivers a quality experience.
It's exactly the kind of movie you want it to be. Rent it with your best girlfriends on a blustery spring afternoon.
