Bridget Jones's Diary

Probably the most perfect chick flick of all time. Especially for Laura. I know a lot of people relate to Bridget Jones but my connection to her is brutal. Our DNA is almost indistinguishable. Bridget Jones asserts the controversial idea that, yes, you can be blonde and blue-eyed AND mid. Doesn’t mean you’re not hot obviously…I think this film is most famous now for viral posts about how “can you believe we were meant to believe Renee Zellweger is fat in this?!?!” HA! You guys should read the book. Much worse. But also, get over it. She is hard on herself but few other characters actually see Bridget as anything but hot and young and wonderful. It’s about the SELF-DEFEATING PROPHECY! And the independent variable is Mark Darcy. I have had an intensely Bridget Jones-esque year…minus the Darcy :(…I’m always reminding myself that Fitzwilliam Darcy is not real and to stop yearning for that…but maybe Mark Darcy is?…I genuinely think this film is a masterpiece. Each time I watch it I love it more. I live in it more. Everything will be okay. Merry Christmas
