lesson

Rating: Null/10 (28 June 2016)

a lesson of embroidery. because it is more than a romantic comedy. and less than a gallery than good acting. it is precise, ironic, using English humor, analysis of every day reality. the fame, the social problems, "the adultescence", the importance of books and the media. the feelings and the public image. sure, the meeting between the director, Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant is the premise of success. but the most important ingredient is the total honesty to describe a chaotic universe, with its rules and accidents and crazy sides. that transforms Notting Hill in precious lesson about a genre potential and about the art to use each detail for an extravagant and so realistic story about an impossible love story.
