Hugh Grant’s role as Travel Book Shop employee William Thacker reprises the same shy, humble, lovable, but lonely character with a small group of friends that made him a star in Four Weddings And A Funeral. That may be because Notting Hill, like FW&AF, was written by Richard Curtis. “And so it was another hopeless Wednesday when I walked a thousand yards to work, not suspecting that this was going to be the day my life would be changed forever.” In two words, that catalyst is Anna Scott, currently one of Hollywood’s biggest stars, who is promoting her latest film Helix, a sci-fi film whose costume design and one interior setting owes a nod to Kubrick’s 2001. She happens in his bookshop, but that first meeting sets off a series of meetings where they spend time with each other.

Let me just say that I’m not particularly a Julia Roberts fan. So when my wife asked to go see Notting Hill in the theater, I politely declined… but I figured that I’d give her a suprise and buy the DVD for her. Well, I sat and watched it with her, and was pleasantly suprised, myself!
