Worst line in the movie

That was not a plea for a simple life. She just wanted to be liked by him. I really like that line because the way she says it shows us that she has probably never had a genuine relationship, may be not since she became a celebrity, since she was a little girl. That is why she says it as if she were a little girl.

I agree her saying it in any other way would not have had the same impact when he recites it back to his friends later. Anna and William had been through all of obstacles caused by her career and money clashing with his simple life as a bookstore owner.
The line starts with, "The fame thing isn't really real, you know."
The line basically said, "I am here in front of you without the fame, money, and everything that goes with it; I am stripped down bare to just a girl asking a boy to love me for who I really am." -

I had no problems with the line. It was parodied on an episode of 30 Rock, in the episode where Jenna gets a crush on an EMT worker.
My choice for 'worst line' - the one where Anna says "What is the deal with men's fixations on breasts? Your mother had them, and they feed babies!" How are those observations supposed to change men's interest in the female body? Makes no sense! -

Don't mind this movie really. Sort of a nice rip off of Four Weddings
But that line about being "just a girl asking a boy to lover her."
Wow. What a clunker. Grow the beep up. You're a woman. And if it's really just a plea for the simple life, get off the fast track (and give up the $15 million payday). Our celebrity focused culture is obscene anyway. And as for the boy in this movie, grow up and grow a pair. Um Um Um.
it was not a plea for a simple life, it was a plea for REAL LOVE. like she says at the dinner, she's had a serious of not so nice boyfriends. she wanted to treated be well and she recognized she hadn't treated will well and was trying to explain why. was it cheesy? sure. but it was also authentic and real. julia roberts brought a great vulnerability to that role. -

"Is it still raining, I hadn't noticed"
"Yes, well, erm, I mean, we are, you know, well… we are in Britain"
Totally fake and spoils the entire movie for me. This is just white mischief, it's a well known fact that people try to plan the Notting Hill festival around the hottest days of the year so that Paddington Bear's blood doesn't wash away or Bridget Jones' diary doesn't get wet. They would use some common sense and sensibility and give at least an impromptu two weeks notice and chance the event date by nine months to celebrate under a dry bitter moon with the remains of the day.
Utter twaddle!
