He simply didn't recognise her, he then treated her like everyone else. Senior bankers work very long hours and as a result can be oblivious of people who are in the spotlight. The only point i would make is senior bankers are not generally crass or nieve it would have been more realistic if he had spent the whole dinner party oblivious as to her being famous. The other issue being English he was just doing small talk and trying to find things they had in common just to keep the conversation going, it should be noted she didn't do any effort in that regard. In so much as the film was set in Notting Hill a number of bankers earn in excess of £15m a year and would have been unfazed by it anyway. However thats the film business.

I love this question and I ask it when the conversation is going well. It gives me something to expound upon and also, tells me a little bit about them. When you ask someone their job, you can more or less gauge how much they earn (so you can also later act accordingly for example inviting them to a place both of you can afford), their principles (for example, if you’re talking to someone in the army, they value discipline or authority etc.), their habit and interests. I’m not saying you will have a perfect understanding of them but a general idea will keep the conversation going.

[@deezynar]

I gave an employee a good raise on her one year evaluation because she deserved it. I had only been in the supervisor position for a few weeks. She told another employee who had been working there longer, but wasn't making as much. That other employee went to human resources and complained. I was not in charge when that employee was given her last evaluation, so I don't know how her wage was decided. She had worked there longer, but wasn't as good as the one I gave the raise to. I was told to give the whiner a raise, and two other employees who were in a similar situation got raises as well. From my perspective, employees talking to each other about how much they make is a sure fire way to make them get lower increases on all of their future evaluations for acting like jerks. I probably would have given each of those employees increases that fit their skills and energy. Just ripping pages off of the calendar does not justify an increase in pay. I'd happily pay newer people more money if they were better employees.

[@Raison_d-etre]

@@deezynar And this is why America prefers workers not talk about their salaries, and why experts now say workers should. You're a nasty boss.

[@deezynar]

@@Raison_d-etre I'm always impressed by people who can write, but can't read. How do you do that? I'd really love to know. Oh, you won't be able to read this, I'm just wasting my time asking you that. Maybe some time in the future you'll learn to read, and you'll read my first reply to you. If you do, you'll see that I was a great boss because I believed in paying generous wages to employees who did their job well. Folks like you live in a fantasy world where the boss is evil and all the employees are perfect little angels who get screwed. You've never seen employees who have to be prodded to do their job, but expect to get paid. You've never seen employees who do low quality work, or employees who intentionally break things. Employees start off as unemployed people. They see an ad for employment and come in to an interview saying they will be the best employee the company has ever had. They say that AFTER the salary and the job responsibilities have been explained to them. Then they start working and realize that the pay and the work are just like they were explained to them. Then they become unhappy and swear that they are getting screwed. Instead of finding a job that is better suited to them, they stick with the job they said they'd be great at, and they suck. They suck because they suck at everything. They don't get a better job because they are losers who are not qualified for a better job. So instead of doing a great job at the one they have, they screw their employer. And in response, their employer pays them the least they can, and hopes to replace them as soon as possible. But those who do a great job will often have a boss like me who gives them the maximum raise possible, even though that makes them higher paid than people who have been there longer, but worked under a different boss. I am guessing that you belong to a labor union that tells you how you are getting screwed by your employer in every monthly meeting. Good old unions - spreading dissatisfaction, ingratitude, and envy, everywhere they go. Unions also protect bad employees. Isn't that surprising. Unions are businesses that make money off of telling workers that businesses screw people. Meditate on that for a while. Businesses are typically not saints, but when you hear the salary, and what a job entails, it is on you to say, "No thanks" right then if that doesn't satisfy you. Only low-lifes take the job, cry about it, and do bad work. But, you won't understand any of that because you have a disability.

@@begobolehsjwjangan2359 Not actors specifically, just high earners (movie stars, recording artists, star athletes, corporate CEOs). A lot depends on the structure on how you receive the money (if a high pay-off is preceded by several years working towards it with no income, you used to be able to spread out taxes over those years, thus reducing taxes due for each individual year). This also assumes her being a California resident. Some US states have high personal income tax rates, others like Texas and Florida have none. That is why a lot of celebrity athletes maintain their main residence in these states. Bottom line, gross income is as meaningless a figure as the touted jackpot in a lottery. It may be a high number, but it only applies if the winnings are taken over time. Any immediate cash payout is greatly reduced, made even more so when taxes are deducted first. That, at least, is the situation in the USA. It probably varies greatly in your jurisdiction.

What is sad if the director hasn’t made many films or at least one more like this one... because this movie remains a good one after years and I wish there were more like it! Any suggestions? I like Anna and the guy. They r both pure .... and simple ..... and she is soft spoken ....

[@frankfisher99]

he has made loads. Try Four Weddings first

[@Finians_Mancave]

Funny seeing Lord Glover hosting a dinner party with Lord Grantham in attendance. They come from entirely different circles....

[@jtidema]

Hugh Bonneville, so cute in this! It was an excellent cast.

[@sv5530]

Hugh Bonneville looks so youthfully handsome here.

[@az1317]

I love Bernie. And Lord Crawley.

[@DarkLord-pm1eg]

I really died laughing at this scene, the first time!!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@grumpyg9350]

I never ask someone what they do or how much they make. If someone doesn't tell me, it's none of my business.

[@bittercaramel7652]

Same, if they tell me I'll listen but I won't ask them what they do and how much they make.

[@calisongbird]

Asking someone what they do is not rude - it’s an ice-breaker, a getting-to-know-you question. Asking what they make is definitely rude.

[@gerardmackay8909]

@@calisongbird I always think, given that the character personally knows struggling actors, he could have said ‘My friend only got $300 for the last film he was on, I hope you got more in yours’ and Anna could have replied ‘yes luckily it was $14,999,700 more’ Somewhat less crass exchange than directly asking her what she made (though in fairness the character was meant to be sweet but gauche too)

[@jordancrabbe4404]

When people ask me what my favourite movie is, I tell them that it is Pan's Labyrinth by Guillermo Del Toro. It's secretly Notting Hill. Whoops-a-Daisy!

[@tessabela]

15 million dollars was exactly what Julia Roberts got for the Anna Scott role...🤩

[@wanychen172]

A very classic movie! A very classic movie!

[@alessandrodipasquale5757]

[@mohitgupta7145]

Well there was some magic in the movies of 90's... Create a list of your favourites and I bet that would belong to that era...

[@laszlokiss6671]

[@erinchambers9]

Awe! It’s Alice!!!

[@kevphillips02]

Was it really 23 years ago..Where have the years gone ?

[@opsatr]

Took me a while to realize it's Lord Grantham. 😅

[@juliaalyssandra373]

"ohhh splendid! well done!" couldn't sound more English lol

[@kajanadziejabiedron]

the supporting cast was what made this movie. I couldn't care less about the two main characters

[@heathmelrose3914]

"Careful there, vicar." (:

[@Elisa16031993]

I’m watching Downton Abbey. One of the main characters is the same as Bernie in Notting Hill. So funny to watch this movie even more.

[@Sofiav1088]

OH MY GOD ITS LORD GRANTHAM

[@lisadc4681]

Yes, and how adorable is he in this??
