Hugh Grant talks to Diane Sawyer about the 20th anniversary of the movie"Love Actually."Nearly 20 years ago, movie audiences around the world were treated to a quirky comedy about romance, rejection, family, the holidays and the energy of London.
The 2003 movie follows the romantic plots of several characters in nine storylines taking place in the weeks leading up to Christmas. Curtis told Diane Sawyer that he's been obsessed with the idea of love ever since he was a boy. He said he appreciates that "Love Actually" emphasizes how all different kinds of love can bring out the best in people."I do think, you know, the way to think about life is that every day has a potential, in all its simplicity, just to be-- just to be gorgeous."
Thompson said she recalled Grant telling her at the movie's premiere, dryly, that the movie was the "most psychotic thing" they've ever been in. "So you think, 'I want to say an enormous amount through what Laura's feeling. I've got 6 minutes to do it in. How do you do that?' And then you suddenly realize that Laura can do it in 30 seconds," he said.Thomas Brodie-Sangster was 12 when he auditioned for the role of Sam, the lovestruck boy who has a crush on his American classmate Joanna, played by Olivia Olson.
I just do not get it. I thought it was awful.
This movie sucks. Please tell me I'm not the only one who finds it silly, fake, sappy, and possibly harmful (see obsession/stalking).
Yuck. It's a terrible movie, but I guess it's ABC's turn to use it to pollute the airwaves this year.
One of my favorites, as silly as it is. Always seemed like a sleeper to me.. I paid no attention to it when it came out; I can't even remember who told me about it. But now...every Christmas!
I watch this with my sisters every single year at Christmas still. The best holiday movie hands down!
Never seen it! 😲
My wife and I love it & watch every year. Its odd though, because when you take a step back, its a pretty sad/dark movie. Cheating with a brother in law, wife dead of cancer, emotionally cheating on wife with secretary, a best friend in love with his friends new wife....yeesh
i would like to see some of the older movies along with new ones
