| Synopsis |
| Crowd pleasing romantic comedy, based on Nick Hornby's novel of the same name, tells the story of a shallow, wealthy man (Hugh Grant) who begins dating single mothers, because he believes they aren't as emotionally complicated, but his plans are ruined when he falls for his latest target and becomes a father-figure to her 12-year-old son.
