Trivia
Release date: March 9, 1994
The budget for the film was so small that the extras had to bring their own suits to the weddings.
The poem read by Matthew on Gareth's funeral was written by W.H. Auden (U.K. 1907-1973) and is called
Funeral Blues
Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.
Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead.
Put crepe bows round the white necks of public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.
He was my North, my South, my East and West.
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last forever; I was wrong.
The stars are not wanted now: put out every one;
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the wood;
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

Grant finally hit it big in 1994 with starring roles in two films, Sirens and Four Weddings and a Funeral. Hugh quickly followed up with An Awfully Big Adventure, The Englishman Who Went up a Hill but Came down a Mountain, Restoration, Nine Months, and Sense and Sensibility, all in 1995.
After several years away from the Hollywood spotlight, Grant returned to the big screen with Notting Hill (1999), followed up with major successes in Bridget Jones's Diary (2001), About a Boy (2002), Two Weeks Notice (2002) and Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason (2004).

Single 32-year-old Charles (Hugh Grant) seems to live from one wedding invitation to the next. He is always flirting on the outskirts of commitment but never able to make the final move. But then he meets Carrie (Andie MacDowell) at a wedding and Charles immediately becomes infatuated. They enjoy a brief tryst at an inn, but Charles' British reticence kicks in, and Carrie is on her way back to America before
he realizes he should have made a move. 
Time passes and they keep running into each other, months apart, at the other weddings and the funeral. Then Charles receives an invitation to Carrie's wedding and ultimately, Carrie appears at Charles' wedding.
I think I love you
