We introduce and analyse a class of quasi-self-similar solutions of the thin film equation to describe the dynamics of expanding liquid films on a solid surface. Using these solutions as intermediate asymptotics profiles, we obtain a quantitative expression for the shape of the film and a relation between the speed of the contact line and the macroscopic and microscopic contact angles.
