I can so relate to the necklace scene. We went shopping for engagement rings and didn’t purchase one. It was right before Christmas and I was pregnant with our son. He gifted me pyjamas and such. My heart was broken.
When he asked me to marry him months later I said no. I could see what my future would entail.
look forward to watching it, have never heard of it until now
I liked Karl……The best looking guy …ever.
To this day an acting masterclass.

If I never see this journalist again, it will be too soon.
Bit of overkill on the soft filters
Heartbreak might have made my heart stronger but it sort of fractured my brain.
Brilliant. Thank you for this touching nod to a classic. Thank you Richard Curtis for providing such screen story gems in our lives❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹
Kenneth Branagh …😐🤐
Great movie. Billy Mack is my favorite of the characters.
Alan Rickman. Whatta guy.
What a scene… What an actress.
I wish we had heard from Colin Firth too though, he was in one of my favourite stories from the film.
Beautiful film. Sometimes movies with stories about LOVE are not taken serious. People live to love and to be love. Each history has a iconic scene. But Emma and Joni explosive combination. The lyrics of the song are sublime.
Progressives really hate this movie.
Makes me cry every time.
These interviews are far too short for a film that has meant so much. Even story lines we might not agree with left a lasting impression. There is so much to love for Emma, Hugh, Laura, Liam, Alan, Thomas, Bill, Andrew, Martin, Chiwetel, Kiera, Rodrigo, Gregor, Martine, Rowan, Lucia, and everyone else who made this so memorable.
Emma Thompson’s scene in the bedroom is a masterclass in acting. ❤️💔
Emma Thompson! You, Madam, are my spirit animal! I cannot wait to be as successful a person you are. 💚💛
The glaze on the camera ugh
I think people still love this movie so much. It has been parodied a lot (the card scene with keira knightly gets spoofed all the time on youtube and snl). It gets watched every Christmas by millions like Charlie Brown and the Grinch and a Christmas Miracle movies. Emma Thompson was just so powerful in this movie. The way she handles her heart being broken is devastating. The whole movie was filled with poignancy and intense emotions. It makes your heart broken, it makes you smile, cry, think, be sad, be depressed, be hopeful for the future. It makes you feel so many things. Love Actually also was groundbreaking in that it was the first movie to have so many interwoven characters and it started a trend in cinema. I think the movie is so well loved. The only thing that made me raise my eyebrows was when Richard Curtis said he felt stupid for not having enough diversity. It made me groan inside, like "here we go again with the woke identity politics stuff". I mean racial diversity and having different kinds of skin tones on the actors means so little. This movie was perfect the way it is. It already had plenty of diversity. It had people in all sorts of situations, different classes, home languages, ages, different levels of happiness. everyone was in a unique love situation. Please do not change one damn thing about this movie!!!
“The late Alan Rickman” 😢
One of the greatest actors of our time. She can take me from pealing with laughter to a blob of tears at the flick of a dime. No matter what the movie or what the role she's playing, she pulls me into that movie every time. Love her.
I watched this film with a friend whose husband had just left her for another woman. I will never forget the feeling I had watching her reality play out next to me. She'd said to me earlier that the one thing that upset her most was that she could not remember the point in her marriage when it became a lie. She may have well written this script. I sob every time I've watched this scene and over the past 20 years, I've watched it a lot.
Still a touching film. I distinctly remember going to the premier meeting with most of the cast, and what a film! It's on every Christmas and we love it!
Christmas tradition. Watch “Love Actually” followed by “Die Hard” so you see Alan Rickman be punished for mistreating Emma Thompson.
