I was informed I could skip two and three, so straight on to four!
Surprising amount of tear jerking in this romcom; the random snippets of Colin Firth’s Mark Darcy worked pretty well. The movie is actually a pretty decent exploration of grief and moving on from a loss.
The rest of it, particularly the stuff around Bridget Jones dating a guy 20 something years her junior, I was less into, but it’s overall fairly harmless.
