Late post of BJD...Sorry~ :(

I might have amnesia... This work should be done a long time ago but I just "kept forgetting" about it... If you see this, please introduce a good doctor to me... Thanks~
I'm just kidding~ LOL But I'm really sorry to have it done so late. Anyway, here I go.
For the two version of BJD, I like the movie better. One of the reasons is that I originally like movie better than book because I'm too lazy.. I prefer some one telling the story to me rather than explore it by myself. Another reason is that I think the movie did a good job to keep the form of diary. It's really hard to make a movie based on a diary because diary usually contains some routines and have a slow process of what's going on. The director cut a lot of routines and make the process a little bit quicker than the book, but nothing important was lost during this transform. The actors and actress were very professional. I saw a serious but gentle Mark Darcy. I saw a charming but flirty Daniel Cleaver. I saw a silly but delightful Bridget Jones. All the characters are kept as they appeared in the book. However, I do noticed a difference. In the book, Bridget Jones was the only main character, because it was her diary. Other people were just supporting roles. But in the movie, it seems like Bridget and Darcy were the main characters while Daniel was a very important supporting role. This change made the movie have a clear topic, which is the journal of finding true love for Bridget Jones. I like this change.
