‘Love Actually’ is a master piece of British talent – so wonderfully written, so beautifully made and bursting with talented British actors! This movie will make you smile from ear to ear. If you haven’t seen this film yet then you must, and if you have already seen it then watch it again! It is a real feel-good movie and one that you can enjoy with your partner, your mates, or even on your own.
With an all star cast of Colin Firth, Hugh Grant, Keira Knightley, Kris Marshall, Alan Rickman and Emma Thomson just to name a few, this movie is packed with talent, fun and the on screen chemistry between the actors is electric – a recipe for a very entertaining film!
The opening scene gives you a sneaky peak into the style of the film. The scene takes place at Heathrow airport which is full of people being reunited with people they love – there are boyfriends and girlfriends, parents and children, best friends, and siblings. The scene is accompanied by the British Prime Minister (Hugh Grant) delivering a touching speech expressing views on the power and significance of love in our society. To quote him, ‘Love Actually is all around.’
You will laugh, scream, cringe and cry at this impressive and original romantic comedy. The scenes between Natalie, the maid at Number 10 (Martine McCutcheon) and The Prime Minister (Hugh Grant) and pure comedic glory! The chemistry between the pair is electric on screen and their comic timing will leave you in stitches. Watch out for the scene where they first meet and Natalie can’t find the right words to greet a Prime Minister.
One of the highlights of the film has to be when The Prime Minister bursts into a dance routine to the song “Jump” – it is hilarious! It’s like watching your uncle dancing at a wedding reception – you cringe and laugh at the same time!
If you’re not sold on this film so far, then just let me tell you who wrote and directed it… Richard Curtis! Curtis was the one who brought us the fantastic ‘Four Weddings and a Funeral’, ‘Notting Hill’ and co-wrote ‘Bridget Jones’s Diary’. This movie is the one to watch to make you smile, give you that warm feeling inside, and make you chuckle… Enjoy!

I think that your marketing piece is an improvement and think that your title alone has made this piece advertise marketing very clear from the start. I think you have thought carefully about marketing something that is relevant to this time of year. I tried to do the same with my new marketing draft where I have used Christmas as a way to market it.
ReplyDeleteI do think that this is now written for all audiences as you have still used the scene in the airport but included the scene with Martine and Hugh which is a very funny moment and im sure that people can relate to the scenario and awkwardness between them. This works very well as comedy is often a popular genre for people of all ages, I also noticed that you have used my feedback from your descriptive piece where I related “ignited laughter” to the scene where the Prime Minister is dancing in at Downing Street, this is great because you have reflected on what I thought was a funny scene, and tried out what you have learnt from previous comments otherwise known as active experimentation.
I do think that mentioning Curtis at the end is a sensible place to write about it as you have done so well with charming the reader that its even better that you finish writing about a great writer/director, its like ending on a high.
I like the link to the website I think that good, the only thing I would probably add is something about the film been available on DVD. Is it out on blue ray? Can you still rent it? Just so then after advertising how good this film is they know its available to watch now.
Otherwise well written, enjoyable and attractive to read.
