Trivia
The first of (as of 2014) five films written by Richard Curtis and starring or co-starring Hugh Grant; the other four are Notting Hill (1999), Bridget Jones's Diary (2001), Love Actually (2003), and Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason (2004). All five collaborations are romantic comedies. Roger Mitchell (director of "Notting Hill") has said, "Hugh does Richard better than anyone else, and Richard writes Hugh better than anyone else", and that Grant is "one of the only actors who can speak Richard's lines perfectly".
