The — Birdcage(1996)

To ensure the wedding happens, Val begs his fathers to "play it straight" for one night. This leads to a frantic makeover of their home:

Armand pretends to be a cultural attaché, and they even change their name from "Goldman" to "Coleman" to hide their heritage.

All the art and flair are replaced with austere, "traditional" furniture.

The problem? Barbara’s father is (Gene Hackman), an ultra-conservative politician and co-founder of the "Coalition for Moral Order". To make matters worse, the Senator is currently embroiled in a political scandal and desperately needs a wholesome, traditional family event—like his daughter's wedding—to save his reputation.
