Renée Zellweger stars as the eponymous character in this triple bill of romantic comedies based on the novels by Helen Fielding. 'Bridget Jones's Diary' (2001) introduces Bridget, the 1990s British everywoman: single, weight-obsessed with a mild drinking problem. Her life goes from middling to worse when she embarks on a doomed affair with her silver-tongued boss Daniel Cleaver (Hugh Grant). In the background lurks Mark Darcy (Colin Firth), a seemingly cold lawyer who keeps crossing Bridget's path but whose precise intentions are hard for her to divine. All the while Bridget records her misadventures in her diary in an attempt to take control of her life. In 'Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason' (2004), having finally found the perfect man in Mark Darcy, Bridget is now faced with the even bigger challenge of keeping him. When her self-doubt returns and her womanising ex Daniel Cleaver reappears in her life, Bridget finds herself stuck in a Thai prison on drugs charges. As Mark fights for her release, Bridget finally realises that he is her one true love. Finally, in 'Bridget Jones's Baby' (2016), following her break-up with Mark Darcy, Bridget decides to focus on her career as a top news producer while also attempting to enjoy the single life with her friends. Her love life takes another turn when she meets suave American Jack Qwant (Patrick Dempsey), who helps her out after she gets into a spot of bother at a music festival. With a new relationship flourishing and everything seemingly under control, it's not long before there's a hitch - she discovers she's pregnant. Unsure if the father is Mark or Jack, Bridget is yet again faced with making some awkward and ultimately life-changing decisions.
