Rent About a Boy (2002)

From the hugely successful author Nick Hornby and the makers of Bridget Jones's Diary comes the must have hit comedy for 2002, but this time it isn't about a girl but About A Boy.

Will Freeman is the envy of every man, he drives a fast car, enjoys casual relationships and at 38 has rid his life of all responsibilities....... until he meets Marcus. A unique 12 year old boy who turns his life upside down with hilarious results.

Featuring a fantastic soundtrack written especially by the critically acclaimed Badly Drawn Boy, Hugh Grant (Notting Hill, Bridget Jones's Diary) in his best performance to date alongside Rachel Weisz (The Mummy) and Toni Cellette (Muriel's Wedding).

About a Boy review by JC

a personal favourite - the best of British light and warm humour

Perfectly cast and presented, a warm and sincere movie containing characters most English people know. I just love this film and have watched it a few times, it never fails to make me smile and feel good at least a few times every time. The score is perfect, absolutely perfect. Certainly the best Hugh Grant role I have ever seen and certainly the best of British light and warm humour.
