BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY
In the screen adaptation of BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY, Helen Fielding's international ... more
best-selling phenomenon, documentary filmmaker
(and real-life inspiration for the character
Shazzer) Sharon Maguire has managed a rare feat--a
film as captivating as the novel. Bridget Jones
(Renee Zellweger) is a pretty and neurotic
thirtysomething singleton (in her vernacular) who
vows to take control of her life after being
humiliated by handsome, standoffish barrister,
Mark Darcy (Colin Firth) at her parents' New
Year's party. Determined to lose weight and cut
back on vices like wine, cigarettes, and
workaholic-alcoholic-misogynistic men, Bridget
begins a diary to chart her progress.
Unfortunately, the P.R. executive hits a snag when
her boss, gorgeous cad Daniel (Hugh Grant)
instigates a sexy e-mail flirtation. Despite her
tendency to bungle book launch parties, and any
situation involving the ever-present,
ever-disapproving Mark Darcy, Bridget's winning
combination of charm, vulnerability, and wit
intrigues not only the seductively dangerous
Daniel, but also the arrogant barrister. Featuring
a note-perfect performance by Zellweger, a
devilishly against-type one by Grant, and the
inspired casting of Firth (the object of Bridget's
lusty fantasies in the book); DIARY is a clever,
delightful romantic comedy guaranteed to please
old fans and win new ones.n

Bridget Jones's Diary 2 - Bridget Jones's Diary 2 -
The second instalment in theBridget Jonessoundtrack phenomenon, is a fairly tenuous ... more
affair--subtitled "More Music From the Film and
Other V.G. Songs", it could be seen to be somewhat
stretching the loyalty of wannabe Bridgets
everywhere. But then again, when it includes such
a great line-up of tracks, it would be churlish to
complain. The two glaring omissions fromVolume
1put in a very welcome appearance, namely Van
Morrison's "Someone Like You" and Nilsson's
"Without You" (albeit without Bridget's somewhat
over-exuberant backing vocals), along with the
original version of Robbie's "Me and Mrs Jones" by
the Dramatics and an acoustic version of the
Gabrielle hit "Out of Reach". Nestling comfortably
alongside them are a wealth of tracks for the
modern singleton--empowerment in the form of En
Vogue's "My Lovin' (You're Never Gonna Get It)",
feel-good sentiments from McAlmont and Butler's
"Yes" and a good bit of wallowing courtesy of
Yvonne Fair's "It Should Have Been Me". The only
things that are missing are the free bottle of
Chardonnay and the big pants. --Helen Marquis

Eventually, Bridget comes to wonder if she's let
her pride prejudice her against the surprisingly

acclaimed BBC adaptation of Austen's novel.

mild suspicion of Americans (especially if they're
thin and successful) and a subtly expressed
analysis of thirtysomething fears about growing up
and becoming a "smug married". The whole is, as
Bridget would say, v. good. --Leslie Felperin

Bridget Jones's Diary - Bridget Jones's Diary -
Britain's favourite singleton, Bridget Jones, has finally made it to the big screen (and ... more
onto the cover of this 19-track soundtrack),
bringing hope to lonely souls all over the country
and a word of warning to smug marrieds everywhere.
For what should be called "the best chick flick in
the world...ever!" the soundtrack compilers have
come up with a dream tracklist--from classics such
as Aretha Franklin's "Respect", Jamie O'Neal's
tearjerker "All By Myself" and Andy Williams'
"Can't Take My Eyes Off You", to more contemporary
gems from the likes of Gabrielle ("Out of Reach"),
The Pretenders ("Don't Get Me Wrong") and Artful
Dodger ("Woman Trouble"). Plus you get the added
bonus of two unreleased Robbie Williams
tracks--the big-band stylings of "Have You Met
Miss Jones?" and the tender "Not of this
Earth"--and, of course, the much-hyped
karaoke-by-numbers of "It's Raining Men" by Geri
Halliwell and her pants. There are a couple of
fillers from Rosey and Alisha's Attic, but they
don't distract too much from the generally choice
tracks on offer. As Bridget would say, "v. good".

Ultimate chick flick back to back box set
Review of Bridget Jones's Diary/Bridget Jones - The Edge Of Reason/The Holiday (Box Set) by ferrismu

Advantages: 3 fantastic movies, all at once!!
Disadvantages: None... but you may end up resembling Bridget.

...a very happy lady. Bridget Jones' Diary is an essential watch for chick flick fans. It is the original and best of it's type - there have been many copies but none as good. Everything about it is just wonderful - not least the ridiculously satisfying eye candy of both Hugh Grant AND Mr. Colin Firth. Great one liners and reassurance that maybe, just maybe, your Mr Darcy is around the corner... (Yeah right!). And where BJ2 could have gone horribly ...
...because my flatmate and I watched the three films back to back on New Years Day, pyjamas on, sofa and blankets, ice cream and pizza at the ready. Perfect!! The only downside was when our hot neighbour popped round and caught us in the full Bridget Jones-style act. Oh well... ... Read review
