Love Actually
Love Actually is a 2003 romantic comedy film written and directed by Richard Curtis. The Christmas film features an ensemble cast, composed predominantly of British actors, many of whom had worked with Curtis in previous projects. An international co-production of the United Kingdom, United States, and France, it was mostly filmed on-location in London. The film delves into different aspects of love as shown through 10 separate stories involving a variety of individuals, many of whom are interlinked as the plot progresses. The story begins five weeks before Christmas and is played out in a weekly countdown until the holiday, followed by an epilogue that takes place in the New Year. The film was released in the US on 14 November 2003 and a week later in the UK during its theatrical run. Love Actually was a box-office success, grossing $245 million worldwide on a budget of $40 million. The film received mixed reviews and a nomination for the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy. A made-for-television short film sequel, Red Nose Day Actually, aired in two different versions on BBC One and NBC in 2017.

And on this cold, cold night it's gonna be... crowded and sweaty and stuff. And we can't even afford pyjamas. No? Which means... we would be naked.

Mine first. Mine. (Joni Mitchell: Both Sides No Moons and Junes And Ferris wheels The dizzy dancing way that you feel As every fairy tale comes real I've looked at love that way But now it's just another show And you leave 'em laughing when you go And if you care Don't let them know Don't give yourself away I've looked at love From both sides now From give and take And still somehow It's love's illusions that I recall I really don't know love I really don't know love at all Tears and fears And feeling proud To say I love you right out loud Dreams and schemes And circus crowds I've looked at life that way Oh but now old friends... Oh, my God. It's a miracle. You're all dressed. Come on, come on, come on, we're horribly late. Come on, then. In the car. In the car.
Love Actually
Has she noticed you yet? - No. But the thing about romance is people... only get together right at the very end. Of course. By the way, I feel bad. I never ask you... how your love life is going. Er-huh. No. As you know, that was a done deal long ago. Unless Claudia Schiffer calls, in which case I want you out of here straightaway, you wee motherless mongrel. Oh. No, no. We'll want to have sex... in every room, including yours.
