Bridget Jones's Diary (archive)
from Story Nerd · host Valerie Francis, Melanie Hill, Kathleen Foxx
Because the novel is so funny and easy to read, and because the film is a romcom, it's easy to dismiss Bridget Jones's Diary as a simple story that Helen Fielding simply dashed off on a weekend. But nothing could be further from the truth. Even though it's a lighthearted story, Bridget is still a dimensional character and that's why we love her. -V.
