| Review |
Love actually is all
around.
From the new bachelor Prime Minister (Hugh Grant) instantly falling in
love with a refreshingly real member of the staff
(Martine McCutcheon) moments after entering 10
Downing Street...
To a writer (Colin Firth) escaping to the south of France to nurse his
re-broken heart who finds love in a lake...
From a comfortably married woman (Emma Thompson) suspecting that her
husband (Alan Rickman) is slipping away...
To a new bride (Keira Knightley) mistaking the distance of her husband's
best friend for something it's not...
From a schoolboy seeking to win the attention of the most unattainable
girl in school...
To a widowed stepfather (Liam Neeson) trying to connect with a son he
suddenly barely knows...
From a lovelorn junior manager (Laura Linney) seizing a chance with her
long-tended, unspoken office crush...
To an ageing "seen it all, remember very little of it" rock star (Bill
Nighy) jonesing for an end-of-career comeback in
his own uncompromising way...
Love, the equal-opportunity mischief-maker, is causing chaos for all.
These London lives and loves collide, mingle and
climax on Christmas Eve-again and again and
again-with romantic, hilarious and bittersweet
consequences for anyone lucky (or unlucky) enough
to be under love's spell.
