Bridget Jones’s Diary is a beloved film about a heroine both lovable and human that understands the charm of preserving originality. For anyone who’s ever found herself sitting at home with dangerous quantities of wine and cake (whilst belting out “All by Myself” alone), this one was bound to be a rom-com home run. Renee Zellweger’s hapless, relatable Bridget Jones and her competing love interests — played with distinctly British charm by Colin Firth and Hugh Grant — became an instant hit in 2001. It’s hard to think of a more satisfyingly absurd climax than the moment Bridget chases Mr. Darcy down a snowy London street in nothing but a pair of zebra undies and sneakers.
