Romance!

Rating: 10/10 (12 June 2017)

Writer Richard Curtis & Director Roger Michell define Romance in the best way possible with the 1999 Box-Office Blockbuster 'Notting Hill'. This one's a simple, sweet & entirely heartwarming film, that touches the core of your heart. I enjoyed every minute of it.
'Notting Hill' Synopsis: The life of a simple bookshop owner changes when he meets the most famous film star in the world.
'Notting Hill' is about love & it does love right. It's the story of a common man later forms a relationship with the most famous film star in the world. And its a heartwarming journey from start to end. The romance here appears real & you feel for the characters, despite the difference of status between them. It's pure heart!
Richard Curtis's Screenplay is lovely. The Writing is engaging all through & is full of warmth. Roger Michell's Direction is perfect. Cinematography, Editing & Trevor Jones's Score merit a special mention.
Performance-Wise: Julia Roberts & Hugh Grant are top-notch. Both of the screen giants share an infectious on-screen chemistry & deliver wholeheartedly. Of the supporting cast, Rhys Ifans, James Dreyfus & Tim McInnerny stand out. And in a cameo appearance, Alec Baldwin is delightful.
On the whole, 'Notting Hill' is a winner all the way.
