內容簡介:

Synopsis: Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant forge memorable chemistry in this charmer about two very different people--William, an unassuming bookstore owner in London's Notting Hill section, and Anna, a Hollywood actress--who, against the odds, fall in love. After Anna wanders into William's shop while filming on location in London, the two share an instant attraction and find themselves attempting to forge a normal relationship despite Anna's megawatt star power. Screenwriter Richard Curtis (FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL) has crafted a traditional romantic comedy that is surprisingly frank in its depiction of the lives of the rich and famous and the price they pay for success

《新娘百分百》描述一位在英國 Notting Hill 地區經營旅遊書店的失婚中年男子 William Thacker (Hugh Grant 飾演)，有位古怪的房客 Spike，閉俗的書店雇員 Martin，搞怪的妹妹 Honey，以及一群失意的好友。這天，平凡的書店，來 了一位不平凡的顧客，來自好萊塢千萬身價的超級女星 Anna Scott (Julia Roberts 飾演)，William Thacker 眼見這位顧客長的亮眼，不免殷勤地推銷自己店內的旅遊書籍，似乎 Anna Scott 對這位熱情的書店負責人留下了好感。當 Anna Scott 付款離開一陣子，William Thacker 按照往日的生活步調，外出買飲料，不料，冥冥中似乎注定的一段情緣，William Thacker 與 Anna Scott 在街上不期而遇，撞個滿懷，也將飲料灑在 Anna Scott 身上，William Thacker 連忙陪不是，並請求 Anna Scott 到自己對街的公寓換裝梳洗。William Thacker 在公寓裡依然盛情地招待 Anna Scott 飲料點心，態度誠懇，典型英國紳士的口氣，在 Anna Scott 心底的好感更為濃郁，就在離開公寓之際，忘情地深吻 William Thacker，留下一臉錯愕的 William Thacker。從此，一段貴族與平民的愛情故事，就此轟轟烈烈地展開。

推薦原因:

我最最喜歡的….不是劇情,不是角色,而是最後女主角告訴男主角這句話:

「我只是個女孩，站在一個男孩面前，請他愛她。」(I'm just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her.)愛情旅途中,常常想起這句話,只要彼此多一點勇氣,坦白告訴對方自己的想法,也就不會有那麼多猜疑與妒忌了!

My favorite part in the film is:
"I'm just a girl standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her."  we need to remember these words in love journey.With more courage in each of us, frankly telling their own thinking.By doing this,there are no gap between lovers.
