what a beautiful story

Rating: 10/10 (17 January 2006)

From the view "out of Hollywood" LOVE ACTUALLY is a true gem and one of the most underrated pictures of the past years. HBO seems to agree with me because the movie is shown there on a regular basis. Congratulations to Richard Curtis, one of the most sensitive (movie script) writers (and now also directors)of our time. Compared to most of the big, dull Hollywood movies, Richard Curtis did not forget the art of telling a heartwarming story. As in Four Weddings and a funural and in Notting Hill, Mr. Curtis manages again to makes us laugh, cry and feel good at the same time. Love Actually is a heartwarming true piece of phylosophy that many of today's movies lack. Mr. Curtis can do without any special effects because it is the story that matters, nothing else.
