Guess the film based on a boring description

Following on from another thread ...

Erm...

Chaos ensues due to random feline entering house with young children. Mum is missing for the most part.

Oh no, is it Calamity Jane?

Yes 😂

What about American man takes off his trousers , puts on a dress and finds true love?

Weeds?

Tootsy?

ET?

The Pink Panther

@SiobhanSharpe

Elf!

🙂

Good guy gets burned to death. Do crops fail next year? We don't know but suspect not.

Wicker man?

Interplanetary Unusual Attacking Team

Stolen from the Mandarin for the film.

@MrsTerryPratchett yep

YAY!

@MrsTerryPratchett so many possibilities spring to mind.

I want to say Plan 9 from Outer Space but doubt it has ever had Mandarin subtitles...

Nope

Pedantic self-correction, even though already guessed!:
Good guy gets burned to death. Do crops fail next year? We don't know but suspect not they do.

Bad witch poor children

@Theunamedcat Fantastic Beasts?

A woman moves in with a widower to help with the kids, and then she has a makeover and leaves him to it

That's a bit like Now Voyager but I suspect it isn't.

It was Saving Grace, but I’ve just looked up Weeds and the premise sounds remarkably similar.

"Some French people out-sing some German people."

Casablanca!

M&Ms to lure a strange little scientist from another planet. Pizza gets trodden on. Huge waste.

Okay... Trying to think of a trickier one...

Okay, my favourite film ever -
Based on a true story, a doctor works day and night on medication dosages to bring people 'back to life'.

Actually no clue but going to take a wild guess on the latter being Frankenstein
