Love Actually
2003
Ten interconnected storylines weave together around Christmas in London, exploring love in all its forms — new romance, long marriage, grief, unrequited longing, and the bonds between parents and children. Richard Curtis's crowd-pleasing ensemble comedy became one of the defining romantic films of its era.
