Bridget Jones - Part II: Bridget Jones's Diary

Bridget Jones’s Diary is a bestseller book written by Helen Fielding which was released in 1996. The book tells us a story of Bridget Jones, a 30-something simple single woman who writes on her diary about events, worries, happiness, thoughts, weight, chocolates, friendship, work and love in one year of her life. Most of those happening are writing in a humour way. 

The success of the story became from the amazing manner of interaction between readers and character. Helen Fielding proves that she knows how to catch the attention from the beginning to the end.

Because of the tremendous success of the book, five years later, it became a movie. Richard Curtis, Andrew Davies and Helen Fielding wrote the plot and the cast was composed mainly by Renée Zellweger, Hugh Grant and Colin Firth.  Sharon Maguire directed them.

In my opinion, the fact of Colin Firth played as Mark Darcy was a great idea and I think the choice was on purpose, the character is related to Mr Darcy from Jane Austen’s character that was played by Colin Firth as well.

The book is outstanding as well as the film. Each one has a single peculiarity. Don’t miss them! Have fun :-)

See you,
