Stop actin' so English!
14 September 2013
I am continuing my day of Tara Fitzgerald with an old favorite. That is because I am also a huge Hugh Grant fan, ever since Four Weddings and a Funeral. This is his first film since then.

My Tara adventure has taken me to England and Ireland, and now Wales, and a quaint village. The villagers, who are proud to live in the shadow of Ffynnon Garw. the "First Mountain in Wales", are determined to thwart the efforts of the English cartographers to turn it into a "hill."

Most of the people in this village, except for the lovely Tara Fitzgerald as Betty, are a bit daft. The local Reverend (Kenneth Griffith) is hilarious, and Colm Meaney is the irreverent Welsh opportunist. Assorted characters like Johnny Shellshocked, Williams the Petroleum, Tommy Twostroke, and the Twp brothers add to the excitement.

It is Meaney's plan to employ Tara Fitzgerald as the means to keep Grand and his partner in town until thy can add twenty feet to the mountain that really makes the film worthwhile.
