Bridget Jones's Diary (2001 Sharon Maguire)

Helen Fielding, Andrew Davies and Richard Curtis' script well matched by players, particularly Renee Zellweger as Bridget, but also Hugh Grant and Colin Firth - it's a sort of The Philadelphia Story for a new generation.

Stuart Dryburgh shot it in Panavision, Patrick Doyle wrote the music (worked often with Kenneth Branagh).

Doesn't really need the very ending.
