    Besides being one of the most uniquely beautiful women to watch on film, Julia Roberts has stolen our hearts with many amazing film roles over the years. So, to celebrate the star's 46th birthday, we revisit her greatest movie moments.

    1. Julia is on the receiving end of one of the best marriage proposals EVER. Delivered by a hot man. In a bed.

    2. She exposes her most charming, real-life laugh in an unrehearsed scene in Pretty Woman.

    3. Coming to the gut-wrenching, cringe-inducing realisation that she's in love with her best friend, and telling him on his wedding day, as Julianne in My Best Friend's Wedding.

    4. Notting Hill's Honey Thacker reacts just as we would if we were to meet Julia Roberts at a dinner party.
