The article focuses on two films: Bridget Jones's Diary and The Center of the World. Bridget Jones's Diary, written by Helen Fielding, Andrew Davies and Richard Curtis and directed by Sharon Maguire, supplies its heroine, Renee Zellweger with a Hollywood ending but also gives her a rich character, a sense of humor and a brain. Wayne Wang directs The Center of the World. The plot revolves around an Internet entrepreneur named Richard, played by actor Peter Sarsgaard who pays Florence, a stripper, played by actress Molly Parker to spend three nights with him in a Las Vegas, Nevada hotel.
