Notting Hill

LONDON - Notting Hill is a microcosm for what London is, what it wants to be. White meets Black, East meets West and Rastafarians rub shoulders with "trustafarians," (youths with trust funds living bohemian lives).

It's got smart shops, street markets, clubs and restaurants. In fact anything can and does take place on these streets so maybe it's not such a stretch to make it the location place for an improbably love affair.

Hugh Grant plays William, a bumbling bookseller, charming in that sloppy English sort of way and Julia Roberts plays, get this, an American movie super star named Anna Scotts.
