Chatting on a mobile phone by Westminster Cathedral, Firth went almost unnoticed as shoppers and tourists flocked past, many taking pictures of the London landmark instead. In the film, Firth plays a London art curator who tries to con a wealthy collector into buying a fake Monet. The film also stars Cameron Diaz as a Texan rodeo worker who is roped into the plot. The original film – starring Michael Caine and Shirley MacLaine – was nominated for three Oscars.
