Bridget Jones (Renee Zellweger) is a 30-something single woman who lives in London, works in the publishing industry, and worries about not finding success–both romantically and professionally. After being snubbed by Mark (Colin Firth), Bridget begins writing in her diary about trying to cut back on wine, cigarettes, and men. She begins getting sexy e-mails from her boss Daniel (Hugh Grant) and meets him for dinner. Daniel tells her that he and Mark went to college together, and Mark seduced his fiancee. Later, Bridget runs across Mark again, he expresses an interest in her, and now both men compete for Bridget's attention. Zellweger excels in her role of the biologically ticking Bridget, and she received an Oscar nomination for Best Actress.
