This paper analyses Polish translations of two romantic comedy films Bridget Jones’ Diary and Bridget Jones’ Baby. The main goal of a translated text is to convey the meaning of an original. However, it is impossible for any two persons to deliver identical translations. It is always an individual, unique text of the particular author – a film translator and it reflects his or her idiolect. The form of the translated text depends on translator’s skills as they determine particular solutions for problematic fragments (not selfevident) of the original. The choices of translators define their level of mastery. The paper analyses two translations of two different persons and attempts to assess their craft.
