People go on about how it is unrealistic and of course it is but it is one of these films that I always watch when it is on tv,although I have seen it many times and own the dvd.

It is not just down to JULIA ROBERTS because she is only the second most beautiful women in the film.

Why do I love it?

Other films I can't help watching include WHERE EAGLES DARE,THE EAGLE HAS LANDED,THE TRUMAN SHOW ,THE IPCRESS FILE and almost any Bond.

Do other people have this problem?

No I am not an American I am British and often visit London,(I live in Edinburgh).

London does not seem to me to be as clean or as white as the film.

But I don't always want realistic gritty dramas.

I watch it repeatedly when it's available to stream on Netflix. Same thing with the Truman Show. In my opinion, it sets the standard by which all romantic comedies should be judged against.
