Kill Bill: Vol 1 (2003)

The Couple: The Bride and Tommy Plympton

The Problem: All seemed to be going well for The Bride on her happy day. Until her wedding ceremony was unceremoniously crashed by her former co-workers – the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad, sent by their boss Bill to kill The Bride for betraying him. She ends up with a bullet in her head.

Resolved? Happily, The Bride’s a tough old bird and survives being shot. With her fiancée dead, she sets out to avenge his death by killing Bill and his assassins. (She succeeds.)
