This ensemble comedy tells several slightly intertwining
stories set mostly in London: Hugh Grant stars as the newly elected British
Prime Minister, who wants to make a difference and feels that he should not
support American policies blindly. He is unmarried and falls in love with a
young woman (Martine McCutcheon) working in his office but doesn't know what to
do about it. Liam Neeson is a man whose wife has recently died and is struggling
to connect with his young, unhappy stepson. And Alan Rickman finds himself being
swept into an affair with a young co-worker, while his wife, Emma Thompson,
tries to keep their family together. Also with Laura Linney and Colin Firth.
Directed by Richard Curtis. [2:09 - R]
