A warm, witty romantic comedy about a woman's self-discovery and romantic entanglement, grounded in humor, diary-based introspection, and the messy reality of modern dating.

Bridget Jones is an average woman struggling against expectations. As a New Year's resolution, Bridget decides to take control of her life, starting by keeping a diary in which she will always tell the complete truth. Her charming boss takes an interest in her, and she cannot stop running into a rather disagreeable acquaintance whom Bridget cannot help finding quietly attractive.
