Download Love Actually
(comedy, drama, romance)
Set almost entirely in London, England during five frantic weeks before Christmas follows a web-like pattern of inter-related, loosely related and unrelated stories of a dozen or more various individuals with their love lives, or lack of them. The central character is the new bachelor prime minister David who cannot express his growing feelings for his new personal assistant Natalie. The prime minister's older sister Karen slowly grows aware of her husband Harry's flirtation with an office worker named Mia. Karen's friend Daniel is a recently widowed writer whose 11-year-old son asks for love advice about a girl he has a crush on. Meanwhile, Jamie is another writer who leaves his girlfriend after catching her cheating on him and travels to France to write a novel where he pursues a possible romance with his non-English speaking Portuguese maid Aurelia. Also, Harry's American secretary Sarah questions a romance she pursues with the office hunk Karl, but her personal family problems get in the way. Other secondary characters involve a photographer who pursues his best friend's new wife Juliet; a pair of movie stand-ins, named John and Judy, who grow closer after their simulated love scenes; a libidinous chum who wants to travel to Wisconsin, USA to score with women; and a burned-out former rock star named Billy Mack who is the main connection between all stories involved.

Like most kids I have never seen this movie in my own or with male friends
. But my girlfriend was in town and I thought that a romantic comedy
would make a perfect movie for us to see together.
I had heard about the reference to 9 / 11 at the beginning of the film
and it is feared having to sit through that part. But I was
pleasantly surprised to note that the reference is very mild and not particularly
cringe worthy, either I'm not quite sure why it bothers some people to
a lot.
As regards the film as a whole and I liked quite
certainly recommend it as an ideal date movie. Many of the comments here have
detract from the film because they thought that was too glib about love and
very unrealistic. However, I think you have to accept that the film was made
to make people laugh and bring the spirit of love in the Christmas holiday period
. If you see the film in that context then it does its job admirably
well.
But for me the best moment in the film was the press conference
(standing side by side) by the U.S. president and British Prime Minister
. In fact I felt like standing and cheering when Hugh Grant
(
as Prime Minister) finally tells the American president to his face and
in front of the worlds press that Britain no longer kowtow to americas
desires, but they have an independent view of their own.
Given that americas is the largest market for films is
extremely brave of Richard Curtis to write this scene and it deserves a lot of credit
For portraying the U.S. president rather as repugnant and putting
within
context ", which the special relationship 'really is.
As Richard Curtis should have known the movie had done well, but not in large
States. However, it has been cleaned up here in the UK and I am sure that will fazer very well in the rest of the world as well.
So Bravo Richard Curtis for the defence of its directors;
you are a hero!
