Bridget Jones's Diary (2001 Sharon Maguire)

Amazing - it was 15 years since the not exactly productive Maguire made her feature debut. 'What are they thinking' we asked, 'why didn't they use a British actress for Bridget?' (Answer: none of them wanted to put on weight.) Then Renée Zellweger came along and stole our hearts.

Well shaped by Helen Fielding, Andrew Davies and Richard Curtis, though like J-Lo it has a too extended ending. It's beautifully cast.
