The way Tim McInnerny looks at his wife when she tells them about their inability to have kids is so well acted. He conveys his devotion for her regardless of all the things she list's so well. Its a beautiful piece of acting.
I agree, it’s beautiful, his love, the pride he feels at her bravery - it’s utterly breathtaking.
Couldn't agree more. I was going to make the same comment, you saved me the trouble of looking up McInnerrny's name, thank you. Sublime piece of acting.
This scene and the scene at the end where the all pile in his car to go find Anna and he doesnt ho without his wife. When he picks her up and smiles at her told me that even with some of the hardships they face in life she makes him happy.
Agreed. The word 'underrated' is overused, especially when we think that everyone else ought to love our favorite actor as much as we do, but Tim McInnerny is so much more than 'that annoying man in Blackadder'. He seems like a lovely fellow, too.
Not just look but the pause after her "and that deserves a brownie" and then turning it towards William with his "I don't know" to say how much worse someone else has it.. just to make her laugh again.
and then again, at the end, when it does the same for Anna after her fairly honest brownie story.
"No, nice try gorgeous, but you don't fool anyone...." Great line to break the ice.
And epically self-involved.
What is great about this scene is you get a lot of character information basically thrown in your face via exposition, but it felt 100% natural and not forced at all.
Great observation, I have never noticed that before, it really does feel natural.
Maybe a little forced.
Yep its a smart way to get to know all the characters without it feeling forced or stale. Good writing.
Agreed. Great writing. Acting can only go so far.
I agree.
The fact that Anna didn't get the brownie in the end (her story is far from being the saddest one in the table), but she got to vent her insecurities and showed the audience her fragile side without us feeling forced, then the tension is defused by comedy, that is a very nice bit of screenwriting.
I worked in Finance industry and I confirm that Bern deserves the brownie
Late 90s movies had such a real warmth and cosiness to them. Miss that
Advent of social media, smart phones, online dating, and Tinder.
This movie had a wonderful ensemble. They convinced us that they had been close for a long time. You could see why Anna Scott enjoyed spending time with them and longed to have a circle of friends like them.
The level of charm this scene emits it’s on another level. Saw this for the first time. This actors and the ensemble work they did, walked away with the whole film, for me.
I had friends like that when I was young but no more. It was glorious though.
Andrew Rudy Galindo I cant believe the cute redhead died. 😰😰😰
@@fw1421 She did!? What?
@@erin8005 Yea,Emma Chambers,died in 2018. Heart Attack.😢 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@marcopolo9146 what happened - did you just drift apart?
This is the best scene in the whole movie. People connect when they share their miseries, not boasting their successes.
Visit Toronto! Only successes allowed.
I think it was a nice showcase of British self depreciating humour and how Anna passed the test by not being too successful to get in on it!
I still think the couple who can't have children deserve the last brownie
But the wife lets the mood get too intense, violates the happy/sad collective tone agreed upon, and so the search must move along. But yeah, they had it in the bag.
no they dont...the actress deserves that brownie
@@carlosparra8976 Convince us without using the actress' rationale. Or elaborate on it, because neither of us was won over.
@@hd-xc2lz To be honest, I just said that because I know everyone else is taking the politically correct stance and rooting for the unfortunate couple with the big life dramas as opposed to the rich and famous movie star. "Rich people are evil booooo.." Rich and famous people also suffer, People think having money solves all your problems but once you have money and realize the existential void is still there and is deeper than you imagined, that is when shit gets real. Plus JR is so adorable here!!
@@carlosparra8976 Not sure about the couple's struggle being the "politically correct" choice, but agree with you generally about the ever glib rich-people-booo! stance. I'd say better brownie competition for the infertile couple would be Honey. Remember that Anna ends up happily married to William and largely gets there because she is/was a globe trotting actress.
Hugh Grant is SO likeable when he says "Pathetic effort to hog the brownie!". The whole scene warms the heart. ❤
...
"Pathetic effort to hog the brownie" lol
Probably the greatest character development scene in the history of movies. After five mins the audience has a much better feel for all six characters and its pulled off in such a way that doesn’t feel forced and yet is funny and charming. Brilliant.
I always thought the love story between the couple who couldn't have kids is almost as compelling as Anna and Wills. There's such warmth in what they don't have to say, it makes me smile.
The sheer calibre of actors sitting around this table just boggles the mind.... Thank you
I just love this scene. She gets to truly relax and enjoy herself for an evening among people who see her as ‘Anna’ and not ‘Ms Scott’, always having to wonder what they want from her.
What does anyone from an actress?
Truly a great scene from a movie that people often overlook. Well written and well-acted. The scene is warm, funny, slightly awkward (appropriately so) and poignant. It has an emotional depth that blends so well with the British dry sense of humor.
Along with his deadpan delivery of the line “Bastards” from “Four Weddings” one of my absolute favourites of
Hugh Grant- “Pathetic effort to hog the brownie” ... still hilarious years on!
It’s the perfect length. You learn a lot of character in this scene. Self doubt, no confidence, work shambles and the seeing the positive in so much negative. But shame on Anna for trying to steal the last brownie! $15 million for your last movie? Sorry no brownie for you. Gosh I love this movie.
The amount she quoted is exactly what she earned for Notting Hill!
시도는 좋았죠, 시도는 하고 보는 앤
We do not have movies like this anymore, really sad. Such a beautiful scene.
Agreed!
This movie is one of the finest examples of cinematic "lightning in a bottle". I don't think there is one false note anywhere
This scene was so well directed and edited. There is not a timing mistake anywhere. Perfection.
The wholes scenes with this bunch are so precious, the chemistry is off the chart, especially this one, felt so realistic
No words are adequate to describe how stunning and moving this scene is. It is a total masterpiece for so many reasons.
I loved this movie specifically because of the friendship group. This dinner scene reminds me so much of me with my college friends when we were in our mid-late 20's. We would still gather on regular occasions for dinners our, or in house, and we would always just sit and talk and laugh the night away. By the time we all got to our early 30's everyone had growing kids, and zero time to do such gatherings anymore.
This is the best scene of the whole movie. None of them even consider that Anna might have any sort of sad story to tell, but one that's very real for someone like her-she fears being cast aside and forgotten when her looks are gone. Also, this whole gathering was probably the most "normal" evening she's probably had in a long time.
The timing of actor Tim McInnerny to pull the sad parts into comedy is brilliant. The scene where his wife says she can't get pregnant, silence, then he turns it over to Will (Hugh Grant) then when Anna talks about her used to be someone speech, silence, then he says Nice try Gorgeous.
Can't believe Hugh Bonneville looks so relatively young here
I was going to say exactly the same thing. I suppose I'm used to seeing a slightly older version of Hugh Boneville in Downton Abbey!
Well, this movie was released in 1999. He was 36.
I wish we older people could wear a big picture of ourselves from when were young around our necks. People tend to forget that we were young once and treat us like clueless idiots who haven't lived and experienced the world. We weren't born old.
Wait wut! You mean THE Hugh from Downtown Abbey?
@@180MPH_In_The_Wrong_Lane He's Lord Grantham's allright :)
Who got the brownie?
This is why the British don’t go to therapists. We confess at dinner tables and our mates pick us up by teasing us gently enough to turn tears to smiles. I love my pals, old are gold and new are true and Thank God for them daily.
Islam is the truth.
Yes I am British and if you have a problem tell your freind and they spread the word and everyone knows... So problem solved rather than spending on therapists, spend it on something nice to make you feel better like a trip to the massage parlour you will definately come out with a smile Lol.
@@thewariscomingtoatownneary7572 err no its not. Its just another book of made up nonsense that you believe because your parents told you to belive it.
Also, why are you adding this comment on here ..... no brownie for you! 😂
@@Ben-cn4hm 🙌🏻
@@mx-gamesdev8287 oh it will be so good if the problems will be solved just to tell them to friends... but it does not happen.
Beautiful work by Tim McInnerny, Gina McKee, Hugh Bonneville and the much missed Emma Chambers.
Bella (Gina McKee) looks exactly like a female version of Hugh Grant!
Masterclass in writing and acting. Real heart
One of the most charming movies I've ever seen
This to me epitomises British humour. It works best in the darkest corners.
This scene always made me cry because I know I’ll never have any moment close to this
Can relate... I hope youre well, Nick. Take care :)
Brilliant scene. It seems so desperately unfair that the life of a beautiful soul, Emma Chambers, should be cut short.
This scene gets me ALL THE TIME. Everytime. The sadness, the joy, the comedy. I love it so much.
Love this movie, never tire of watching it, the best romcom ever.
This is my second favorite. Holiday is numero uno.
One of the best romantic moveis i've ever seen.
I like how the lady is like, "I'm barren and crippled, so I deserve the brownie."
I have always liked the redheaded woman! She was one of the funniest people in the movie, I think! :)
@Leo Peridot :(
And spike
Then you'd be sad to know, she died.
Can I suggest you try watching `The Vicar of Dibley` ,the actress , Emma Chambers`, plays the Verger (the vicars assistant for my non UK cousins). It was a massively popular series with Dawn French as the vicar. It was written by Richard Curtis, who also wrote Notting Hill,Four Weddings and Love Actually-amongst others. Sadly Emma Chambers passed away in 2018 of a heart attack, she was 53.
I loved her too. I think i heard she passed away couple years ago. I was like wow.😍
All Stars supporting cast 🥰🥰🥰
I love this movie. Enjoyed it, in the theater, with my mom not too long before she passed away. She loved it. A dear memory.
I love Hugh Grant in this. 😍
Well Julia Roberts is now middle age... yet still famous and gorgeous
Some people have all the luck.
And deserve it.
It wasn't until I held my first born, and then saw this movie again, that I knew the couple who couldn't have a baby didn't deserve the last brownie. They deserved the whole pan.
Having a child isn't anybody's right.
@@markfox1545 Agree. It's God's right.
One of my favorite movies that I still watch occassionally and a fun romance movie.
One of my favorite Christmas films. I always watch this during the holidays.
If William didn't fall in love with Anna during or after this night, his friends sure did.
Beautiful with showcasing their lives and friendships, taking their pain and made it less painful with their love for each other.
I've always wondered how much of that is true to how Julia felt in real life.
Very true now that she's middle aged..
I think
@@_RoseDawson_ She's happily married with a nice family and still has a strong career. I don't think she's too bothered.
Well, She can actually act but rather chose family.
@@Toysoldier9527 that's right, the character is supposed to be a mediocre actress, yeah?
This was one of the best parts of this movie.
2021 and I still love this film so bloody natural. ..brilliant
This is such a great feel good movie. I can watch it at least once a year. Such a great cast and so well played
I may not want the last brownie, but I'd gladly bake a few batches just for a chance to sit at that table! Love the movie, ADORE this scene. ❤❤❤
Islam is the truth.
@@thewariscomingtoatownneary7572 Right ... of course, if you say so. And the movie? Anything to say? Or are you so obsessed with Islam you've nothing else?
I just like the kind of friendship they had
This movie should get an Oscar for the coolest movie ever.
I love how they use the brownie souvenir to be vulnerable and honest with each other,and somehow manage to make it light of it.
The kinda friendship I have always wanted
Young Lord Grantham, so cute.
One of my favorite movies ever!! ❤
omg I wanna watch this movie too but can you help me find this one scene where he wipes the ice cream on her face and eats it seductively such a lovely scene I wanna know when does this happen and where could I find it!!! Thank youuu
I like this movie. Find myself watching it a couple of times a year. Yeah I know I should get out more.
One of my top 10 favorite movies of all time!
Best scene .....ever
Communication between friends is a wonderful thing
One day hopefully I will watch the whole movie again
There was a spate of movies that came out of Working Title at that time that were simply "classics".
4 Weddings, Nottingham Hill, Love Actually, About a Boy and Bridget Jones etc ❤😂
“well I don’t know”…. Outstanding acting
"but we're lucky in lots of ways" 🥺
One of my favorite films.❤️
I am not a Julia Roberts fan -- but I have always loved this movie from the very first time I saw it. It is nearly beyond belief that a bunch of actors could get it all together and make us feel like the rest of us are right there, believing.
I attribute it all to British professionalism. And Roberts did well, as well.
This was the best scene !!!!!
Ha that's my favorite part of the whole show!
i never knew honey had passed til i read the comments :(
Greatest film of all time
Best ever love story regarding movies
90's romcom is the best
Me encanta esta escena, un tobogan de emociones👏
one of the best movie scene ever...
Its a great piece of writing 👌🏻
Overdue for a re-watch. ❤
It's my favorite scene ever.
Brilliant acting. And in a wonderful British decor!
This movie is about Max and Bella.
The crippled woman telling her story always makes me want to cry.
Me too. I'm 32, sat on my sofa in UK at 5 30 am feeding our first baby. He is 2 weeks old and I actually had tears as there are people out there who desperately want kids but can't. So tragic.
@@leesample9606Social mores and economics are every bit as sterilizing as physical ailments or injuries.
Love this film so much.
Beautiful movie
One of my favorite scenes in one of my favorite movies. Pathetic attempt to make me watch it again...
There's a lot to love about this scene, but the thing I love best is how it shows how normal and humble she is and then you compare that to his next dates.
LOVE this film!
I remember seeing this and what stuck in my head was "so I've been hungry for a decade." I'm always battling my weight, so I really felt that.
Deveriam fazer uma nova filmagem deste filme. É TÃO lindo e traz tanta questoes . A.M.O!
My most favourite Julia Roberts movie 🎦
Pretty Woman don't come close ❤️🌹
This is not a chick flick movie , this is a great movie
I adore this movie
I love this scene, they're all just friends and they're happy. Done to a T by Richard Curtis.
So lovely 💙
Love this movie
great scene 🎬 soothes my heart ❤️
Such a great movie
