Love Actually is a Christmas-themed romantic comedy with an ensemble cast that includes such actors as Colin Firth, Kiera Knightly, Emma Thompson, Bill Nigh, Martin Freeman and Rowan Atkinson involved in 10 stories showing different aspects of love playing out at the same time and almost all interrelated. Popular music and some Christmas tunes help move the tales along while the various couples form, friendships are reaffirmed, families try to mend, and mostly happy endings are arrived at by all! Sometimes trying a bit too hard and with little surprises, Love Actually is a crowd-pleaser that's meant to just warm the heart and be a sweet, fluffy diversion awhile. Not for cynics.

Love Actually mistake picture

Continuity mistake: Juliet arrives at Mark's flat and brings banoffee pie with her, wanting to see the wedding video. She slips the video into the VCR and places the open pastry box on top of the TV stand. As she takes her jacket off the pastry box is gone, yet in the next shot of the TV the box is right next to the remote, which then changes position in the last shot when the remote disappears. The TV is in the center of the stand in some shots, but to the left of the stand in other shots. The video cassettes, etc., change/alter their position within these shots as well. (00:53:10)

Natalie: Hello, David. I mean "sir." Shit, I can't believe I've just said that. Oh, and now I've gone and said "shit" - twice. I'm so sorry, sir.
Prime Minister: It's fine, it's fine. You could've said "fuck", and then we'd have been in real trouble.
Natalie: Thank you, sir. I did have an awful premonition that I was going to fuck up on the first day. Oh, piss it!

Question: Does Kiera Nightly's character ever split up with her husband and go to his best friend? They show her with the husband at the end of the movie, but it seemed to me that she really loved the best friend. I was sure she would choose him over her husband.

Answer: No, Keira Knightley's character is not in love with the best friend; her kiss is one of compassion and affection, not love. Richard Curtis mentions this on the DVD commentary - he says something about Juliet being the sort of girl who would be used to men falling for her and treating them gently and kindly, which is what she does here.
