Me & Mrs. Jones (2002)
Member Rating:  
Though its title is lifted from the popular 1970s song, the British drama Me & Mrs. Jones is eminently up-to-date in its tone and content. Robson Green stars as tabloid journalist Liam Marple, who at the behest of his boss (and ex-wife), Jane (Keeley Hawes), sets about to dig up dirt on Laura Bowden (Caroline Goodall), the new British Prime Minister. Posing as a political fundraiser, Liam gains entrance into Number 10 Downing, where he promptly wins the confidence of the idealistic PM. A thorough professional, Liam had never counted on falling in love with Laura, but that is precisely what happens -- and neither Jane nor Laura's husband, Richard (Philip Quast), is all that pleased over this particular "scoop." Originally telecast in the U.K. in 2002, Me & Mrs. Jones was seen in America as part of PBS' Masterpiece Theatre anthology on January 26, 2003. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

M. M.

Think American President meet Roman Holiday on a budget. It's a cute, if predictable romantic comedy. Robson Green plays it loose and light as the tabloid reporter who falls for his target. Expect a great deal of fluff and not too much character development. I'd rate it higher if it was more dramatic as Green is best at that. But if you can swallow some big holes in the plot, it's worth checking out. A couple of surprising supporting cast such as Harry (Peter Firth) from Spooks.

A decent movie, great cast and good story, but no Reckless - by far Robson Green's finest performance and a must see for any fan.
