Origin

The Three Men and a Baby franchise is based on the 1985 French independent comedy titled, Trois Hommes Et Un Couffin (Three Men and a Cradle), written and directed by Coline Serreau. Distributed by Acteurs Auteurs Associés, the plot similarly deals with three friends, albeit college-aged young men roommates who discover a baby at their dorm-room doorstep.[ citation needed ]

The plot follows their interactions with a drug mob, local police department, schooling, and their attempts to raise the child. The basic plot similarities differ greatly in their delivery, with the Hollywood adaptation and its franchise that followed taking an optimistic outlook on parenthood, as opposed to its source material from France. [3] The original film became a Academy Award and Golden Globe nominee for "Best Foreign" film upon its release, [14] and was followed by a sequel in 2003 titled, 18 ans après (18 Years After). [15] [16]

In addition to spawning the American made franchise, it serve as inspiration for a number of foreign adaptations. [14]

Revealed to be the illegitimate daughter from a brief encounter between Jack and a British actress named Sylvia, the three friends struggle to take care of the baby until her mother returns. Seeking to become suitable parent-figures to the abandoned infant, the inexperienced men try to adapt to their new roles but quickly learn that they know a lot less about women than they initially thought. Though they are not sure if the mother will return they do their best through various comedic circumstances and experiences, finding that each of their priorities have changed.

Though they are still continuing their bachelor ways, they have let go of some of their more careless habits and activities. Peter, Michael, and Jack - in addition to doing their best to raise Mary - interact with and co-parent alongside her mother Sylvia whom they let live in their apartment. She and Peter have love for each other, though they do not act upon them as he does not vocalize his interest in her. Sylvia reveals her plans to move to England with her daughter, as her new director and recent fiancé named Edward offered her a new business deal. Though she is not particularly romantically interested in him, she accepted his business and marriage proposals since she desires to start a traditional life, get married, and have a family. After Peter expresses his concerns and belief that Edward would not make a good father for Mary, the pair have an argument. Stating that Peter is not Mary's biological father, Sylvia moves away to London the next day with Mary.

Saddened by the events the three friends have a party like they used to, though they find it no longer brings them joy. In low spirits without Mary, they decide to travel to the United Kingdom to prove their loyalty to the little girl. Upon arrival Mary is happy to see them, and states that she believes Edward doesn't love her. As the wedding rehearsal commences, the men begin to question Edward's real intentions. Racing against the upcoming wedding date, Peter, Michael, and Jack seek to discover Edward's hidden agenda and win back Sylvia's trust. Given their love for Mary as their daughter, they seek to prove that they can be responsible as a family unit, while Peter tries to find the words to express his love for Sylvia before it's too late.
