This came out several months ago in the UK (it was shot here) - I know it is not historically very accurate in some respects, but I enjoyed it a lot especially for its performances, Streep and great and Grant is absolutely marvellous in my view.
Its such a shame that the truly great Meryl Streep had to demean and degrade herself by acting alongside that laughable British 'Hoo-Ray Henry' Hugh Grant, hes such an absurd and embarrassing idiot. Any American actor would`ve been much more preferable in the role than the appalling Grant. Apart from that massive hic-cup in the casting though it was quite a good film and Streep was magnificent as always.
