@kateg7298 4 года назад

I met him in 2003 without having a clue who he was. He was charming, self-deprecating, brutally candid about his career and true to his word when I eventually asked him for a small favor. My son was 8 and he was the spitting image of Hugh. He loved About A Boy and wanted an autograph. He was on cloud nine and thrilled that Mr. Grant had actually spoken to me about him.Hugh was kind enough to send a collection of his films a handwritten note and a signed photo. He's truly one of the kindest people I've ever met without being sappy or ingenuous. Also riotously funny and he really does have a touch of the awkward characters that he's so well known for. A genuinely nice man.

Did you read the Sense and Sensibility Diaries? They were written by Emma Thompson during her time adapting and filming and were published together with the screenplay. And it's absolutely hilarious - no wonder, it's Emma after all. But yes, there are many descriptions of conversations like Ang telling them it was boring or saying to Emma "Don't look so old.". One of my favourites was when they shot the kiss scene for Edward and Elinor that was deleted later and Emma writes they shot it on a bridge and in the background, there were two swans that came floating in on the lake as if on cue, but Ang just said "Get rid of them. Too romantic." I would very much recommend it for everyone that loves Emma and/or the movie or is simply interested in the process of adapting a book to film.

I can say with absolute confidence, there is no one i would rather listen to talk about anything. He could talk about tax law and I'd find it entertaining and insightful! He's witty, self-deprecating, charming, has a truly impressive intellect... The older he gets (and more comfortable with himself he becomes) the more I like him.

@soxnation1000 3 года назад

This is the probably best thing I've ever seen on youtube. I've only seen two of his films, but somehow I couldn't stop watching this video until the end. He's amazingly witty and sharp and funny.

If you can find Hugh's Inside The Actor's Studio interview with James Lipton, watch it. He's hilarious and to think all that was off the cuff and spontaneous.

Hugh Grant is kind of different now... His intelligence and his sassy-charming style were always obvious to me, but now he seems to be an unprecedented blend of world/self criticism, sarcasm, dark/realistic humour and wisdom. It's like he's reached the top of himself in his freeiest form... I love that. I was such a teenage fangirl back in the late 90's when he used to get all these similar roles I was digging for. I wish I could have met him now instead of when I was ruled by puberty hormones

He has this humour, self conciousness and pessimism in him that is just perfect in so many in his characters. I really love the characters that you think are pure cinnamon rolls, but actually are very self centered, but not evil - just people that make bad decisions. Just human.
