This is one of those 90s rom coms you’ll never forget. What gives it such enduring charm? The expert casting of Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant as a movie star and a humble bookshop owner who fall in love, of course.
There’s also the perfect backdrop of the quaint, pastel-painted townhomes of Notting Hill, including the now-famous house with the blue door. There is Grant’s heartbroken walk past the bustling Portobello Road street market as Bill Withers’ Ain’t No Sunshine plays. There’s the Notting Hill Bookshop, which still gets bombarded with tourists on the daily, over 20 years after the film came out.
Then there’s the heart-wrenching sincerity of how Julia Roberts delivers her iconic line: “Don’t forget, I’m just a girl standing in front of a boy asking him to love her.”
