Massive apologies for the cheesy post. And yes, I know it is January but I spent last night watching the only holiday movie that I can stand, which is Love Actually. I’m the type of person who enjoys Christmas purely for the reason to shop, but this is the one movie that makes me want to have lots of kids, decorate a tree, hug strangers, talk like Emma Thompson and move to England, all because of its holiday message.
Even the opening airport scene makes me tear up. Yes, despite the fact that every time I go to LAX to pick up my parents and see more grumpy travelers and TSA workers who hate their jobs than joyous reunions between long lost family members, I still believe (at least, for the hour and a half that it takes to watch this film) that love is everywhere. Especially when Alan Rickman is involved!!
It was also kind of amusing to re-watch the final scene when Sam sneaks past the airport security guards for his final goodbye to the love of his life. Isn’t that one some jerk did at Newark, forcing the entire place to shut down?
Anyway, Merry Christmas, everyone! I love you.
