A wonderfully constructed mélange of classical romantic scenarios. Beautifully casted; and paired off in their own respective sub plots. 'Love Actually' reaches out to all of us, showing us an aspect of how we have all once felt, and placing those once poignant emotions in a context which makes you appreciate that the person sitting to the right of you, the one who came in 5 minutes late munching sweets and 'whispering', and indeed anyone with a pulse, all at some point in their existences experienced; or will experience a facet of this films brilliance.
