Bridget Jones is an average woman struggling against her age, her weight, her job, her lack of a man, and her various imperfections. As a New Year's resolution, Bridget decides to take control of her life, starting by keeping a diary in which she will always tell the complete truth. The fireworks begin when her charming though disreputable boss takes an interest in the quirky Miss Jones. Thrown into the mix are Bridget's band of slightly eccentric friends and a rather disagreeable acquaintance into whom Bridget cannot seem to stop running or help finding quietly attractive.
Editor's Verdict
"While the central plot of Bridget Jones's Diary is her romantic upheaval and self-improvement, the narrative is framed by the holiday season. Specifically, the crucial turning point of her self-realization and the key romantic resolution occur during Christmas/New Year's sequences, giving the season moderate weight in shaping character arcs and setting the overall tone."
