Synopsis:

This is the story of Elliot Richards, a well-meaning but socially awkward technical advisor who has fallen for Alison Gardner, a female co-worker. Alison, howver, barely knows Elliot exists! In a desperate attempt to gain Alison’s love, Elliot strikes a deal with the Devil – a saucy, drop-dead gorgeous woman with, as he’ll soon discover, a devilish sense of humor. In exchange for Elliot’s soul, the Devil will grant Elliot seven wishes. To start, Elliot asks to be rich, powerful and married to Alison. When he awakens the next morning, he discovers he’s all that and more – as a Colombian drug lord! No problem, he thinks, because he’s got six more wishes. How about becoming the most emotionally sensitive man in the world? Sure, only Elliot ends up a sniveling, driveling fool. A 7’6” basketball star? Elliot breaks all NBA records, but unfortunately his “equipment” doesn’t measure up. Elliot is learning the hard way to be careful what he wishes for. Because the Devil, always a step ahead of him, is dishing up hilarious subversive versions of Elliot’s desires, turning each of his new lives into a living hell. BEDAZZLED stars Brendan Fraser as Elliot Richards, a hapless young man consumed by unrequited love and desperate to change his life. Elizabeth Hurley plays the Devil, who slyly promises to do just that – for a price. Frances O’Connor plays Alison Gardner, the object of Elliot’s affections.
