a kind of magic

Rating: Null/10 (12 March 2003)

Notting Hill had a kind of magic to it, not because Julia Roberts was a big star, in and out of film, but because the story is so beautifully told, and Julia is completely out of her usual, powerful performance routine, it seems she is not really trying to act, which gives it it's certain edge, she becomes real, this can also be said for Hugh, playing the usual dopey character he's customed to really does suit him, and both of them really worked well together. The day after watching it, i went round to Notting Hill which is just near where i work, hopeing to catch a glimpse of the famous door, but couldn't find it, oh well the magic of this romantic weepy will have to remain in my heart, and im sure alot of people feel the same.
