Synopsis Released in the month of June 2009, the proposal is one the best American romantic movies that ever graced the screens. It features Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds as the main characters in the movie, in which Anne Fletcher was the director of the story by Peter Chiarelli. The support roles in the movie were taken by Mary Steenburgen, Craig Nelson and Betty White. The movie starts off by showing how successful Margret Tate (Sandra bullock) was having been a chief editor of one of the publishing company.
