Curtis, 66, says he regrets much of his work and he was 'unobservant' and 'not as clever' as he should have been.
Love Actually creator, 66, said he would never use words 'fat' and 'chubby' againFour Weddings and a Funeral writer Richard Curtis says he was 'stupid and wrong' for the way he wrote about women and joked about people's size in his films after he was confronted by his own daughter.
But Curtis said those jokes weren't funny anymore and his activist daughter Scarlett, 28, had made him see sense, reported The Times. He also spoke of his regret of not having a black character in Notting Hill and 'not being ahead of the curve', but that his work was never intentionally meant to cause any harm.Curtis said he felt 'stupid and wrong' for thinking he couldn't write about those parts because of his 'very undiverse school' and 'bunch of university friends'.
Curtis previously admitted that 2003 Christmas classic Love Actually's lack of diversity now makes him feel 'uncomfortable' and 'a bit stupid'
