Bridget Jones's Diary is a 2001 British romantic comedy film, based on the novel of the same name written by Helen Fielding. The adaptation stars Renée Zellweger as Bridget, Hugh Grant as the caddish Daniel Cleaver and Colin Firth as Bridget's "true love" Mark Darcy. A sequel, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, was released in 2004.

Before the film was released, a considerable amount of controversy surrounded the casting of the American Zellweger as what some saw as a quintessentially British heroine. However, her performance is widely considered to be of a high standard, including her English accent.

Helen Fielding has stated in many interviews that her novel was based upon both Jane Austen's work Pride and Prejudice and the popular 1995 BBC adaptation Pride and Prejudice. This was also reflected in the decision to cast Colin Firth as Darcy, since he played the 'real' Mr Darcy in the BBC adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. This is not the film's only connection to that serial the screenplay was co-written by Andrew Davies, who had written the adaptation of Austen's novel for the BBC.[1] Another co-writer was Richard Curtis, and there are elements of Four Weddings and a Funeral and even more so of Notting Hill.

The director of the film, Sharon Maguire, is one of Fielding's friends whom the character of "Shazzer" was reportedly based on. In the film "Shazzer" was played by Sally Phillips, who originally auditioned for the role of Bridget, but was not considered a big enough name for the part. Kate Winslet also auditioned for the part and was almost considered for it, but eventually was dismissed since she was too young (25 at the time the auditions took place) to play Bridget.

Renee Zellweger was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in the film.

El Diario de Bridget Jones es una película británica del 2001, basada en la novela del mismo nombre, escrita por Helen Fielding. La adaptación fue protagonizada por Renée Zellweger como Bridget, Hugh Grant como el agresivo Daniel Cleaver y Colin Firth como Mark Darcy. La secuela, Bridget Jones: Al borde de la razón, se estrenó en 2004.

Antes de que la película fuera estrenada, se creó una controversia dada la selección de la estadounidense Zellweger, interpretando a un personaje considerado una heroína británica. Sin embargo, su actuación es considerada de gran calidad.

Helen Fielding ha declarado en varias entrevistas que su novela está basada en el trabajo de Jane Austen en Orgullo y Prejuicio y su popular adaptación de la BBC en 1995. Esto también se vio reflejado cuando Colin Firth fue elegido como Mark Darcy, ya que él interpretó al Sr. Darcy "real" en la adaptación de la obra de Austen.

La directora de la película, Sharon Maguire, es amiga de Fielding, es por eso que el personaje de "Shazzer" está basado en ella. Este personaje fue interpretado por Sally Philips, quién audicionó para el papel de Bridget, pero fue rechazada por no ser lo suficientemente famosa. Kate Winslet también audicionó para el papel de Bridget y fue considerada para interpretarlo, pero después fue descartada dado que era demasiado joven (25 en el momento de la audición) para interpretar a Bridget.

La película incluye cameos por Salman Rushdie y Jeffrey Archer
