Notting Hill (1999)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Roger Michell
Starring: Julia Roberts, Hugh Grant, Rhys Ifans, Tim McInnerny, Dylan Moran, James Dreyfus, Richard McCabe
Julia Roberts comes to Hugh Grant, asking him if they could start dating again. He refuses, and she leaves. He tells his friends about it, then realises he made a mistake. They rush to the hotel where she's holding a press conference. One of the journalists asks a question about their relationship, she says they are just friends. Hugh Grant then asks her (posing as a journalist) if "this person" begged her to reconsider, if she would, and she says yes. They get married, and the film ends with the two of them on the bench in the park that they visited in the night, she's pregnant.

Max and Bella kiss. Bernie kisses a total stranger. Spike finally makes it - he's bright red from running.
