    • Trivia
      (at around 38 mins) During the birthday dinner scene, Anna Scott is asked how much she made on her last film, and her reply is $15 million. This is the amount Julia Roberts was paid for her role in this movie.
    • Goofs
      Three separate times during the movie, the same mother and child are seen in the alley beside William's book shop. All three times this person and child are wearing the same clothes and are in the same physical position. According to the chronology of the film, they would have been standing in that same spot, not moving, for over a year.
    • Quotes

      Anna Scott: Can I stay for a while?

      William: You can stay forever.

    • Crazy credits
      The coloured dots and symbols pop up in time with the music (And when the word 'heart' is sung, a litte red heart appears)

    All The Romance Charm and Wit One Can Ask For in a Romantic Comedy Fantasy
    Notting Hill holds up more than two decades after its release in 1999. This utterly charming Cindafella daydream is one of the best romantic comedies to ever grace the big screen, with a perfect pairing of Roberts and Grant in the lead roles, backed by an equally spot on casting of the engaging supporting cast.

    The film keeps things simple - Average Boy meets famous girl; Boy wins over girl; Boy loses girl; Boy wins back girl; Both live happily ever after (or at least long enough for the credits to roll). It's a classic tale, done with a deftly light touch, devoid of any complex tension - we know its going to end happily, because it's the dream many have despite knowing odds not in their favor, but this is a modern fairy tale - happy endings are required. Even if just a moment in time, perhaps that is enough for anyone to have a dream come true.

    An all-time classic that has moved onto my Top 25 romantic comedies list.
