Sunday Pick Me Up: The Lightening Round

As I sit here in a post-Thanksgiving fog watching Bridget Jones' Diary (the DVD that includes all the swearing), I'm finding myself increasingly appreciative of the story that doesn't follow a formula. With the effortless telling of a somewhat windy tale to the altar, this one's a gem. Yet, despite it's normalcy, the writer here has turned the 30-something Bridget Jones type on its head. This bride wasn't reading books on how to get a man, she was gingerly realizing that perhaps trusting another person wasn't so bad after all, while he was enamored with her when he saw her running around barefoot at a wedding. Doesn't get much more uplifting than that.
