Bridget Jones's Diary (2001) | Official Trailer

British director Richard Curtis may be the king of rom-coms, helming classics like “Love Actually,” “Bridget Jones’ Diary” and “Notting Hill.”

“Wow, you were right. In my generation, calling someone chubby – in ‘Love Actually,’ there were jokes about that. Those jokes aren’t any longer funny,” he went on.

Because I came from a very undiverse school and bunch of university friends, I think that I’ve hung on, on the diversity issue, to the feeling that I wouldn’t know how to write those parts.”The Oscar winner said in 2012 that she was worried about bulking up, but she was adamant on playing the part of the down-on-love, 30-something news journalist properly.
