[SPOILERS FOR A 30-YEAR-OLD MOVIE AHEAD]

The weeping Emma Thompson does when she finds out Hugh Grant isn't married after all -- including the little hand wave and then the eventual laugh/weep combo with her radiant and watery smile -- is my favorite crying-acting in all of cinema.

Thank you for reminding me how much I love this movie!

I love this movie so much and now I need to do a rewatch because it’s been a while. I forgot how beautiful this movie is and tend to watch Pride and Prejudice (2005) on repeat. Also you’re the second person that has recommended reading Emma Thompson’s diaries 📔, so I need to get on it stat. Lol.

I was obsessed with this movie as a teen and haven’t watched it since. Thanks for the much needed encouragement to rewatch. I didn’t know about the diaries. Buying immediately!
