Trivia

In the book, Bridget Jones is obsessed by the actor Colin Firth from the BBC TV series Pride and Prejudice, and even gets to meet him for an interview. This plot-line is omitted from the film, where Firth actually plays her love interest Mark Darcy. They did, however, film the interview scene with Colin dressed in his street clothes, and Renée Zellweger in character. The scene is included in the DVD extras. See more »

lesbian scenes
14 November 2004 | by See all my reviews

How on earth did this film get 6.1 it is totally absurd. As for casting the atypical camp guy and oh so lipstick lesbian how patronising is this to the gay community. For one the lesbian in question and the scenario that went along side her was completely stupid and gave rise to the most awkward kiss scene ever. How could a have decent book be contorted into such drivel - I suppose Hollywood has done it many times before and will continue to do so? As for the one laughter inducing part in the film where Jones gets high on mushrooms now that was funny but this was sustained for a very short nanosecond in time. I left the cinema asking myself why i had gone to see this film and wasted my money only to fuel more books getting tarnished into dire films. Am i the only person that thinks this
