Hugh Grant fantastic in Florence Jenkins movie


Usually he mumbles and bumbles through his movies. However in this particular movie, Hugh was absolutely brilliant. I heard that Colin Firth was going to be cast, but I am absolutely satisfied that Hugh got the part instead. The chemistry between you Grant and Merryl Streep, between here and Grant and that actor who plays Howard on the Big Bang Theory, and hismoverall chemistry with everybody else in the movie, was convincing, pleasant, emotional, real and electric. The whole time I was watching the movie I was never looking at Hugh Grant being Hugh Grant, but I was sucked deep into his character as St. Clair Bayfield.

Grant is better in the role than Colin Firth would have been.

Marvelous! Will be fun to see it. The trailer looks good.

I totally agree, he was fantastic. It reminded me of what a great performance he gave in "About A Boy". I watched that again the other week. Such a great movie.
