22 minutes, 22 seconds: Love Actually
In this week's installment of the new blog feature, 22 minutes, 22 seconds, we look at another festive favourite. Although only released in 2003, British Romance Love Actually has already firmly established itself on many people's list of Favourite Christmas Movies.
Featuring an ensemble cast that includes Hugh Grant, Liam Neeson, Colin Firth, Laura Linney, Emma Thompson, Alan Rickman, Keira Knightley, Bill Nighy, Rowan Atkinson and many other familiar faces, Love Actually is set in London and focuses on several couples (including newly dating pairs, husbands and wives, fathers and sons, rock stars and managers) in the month leading up to Christmas. Some of the interweaving stories are funny, some silly, some some tragically realistic, but the end result is a sweet Christmas treat.
Curiously, last week at 22 minutes, 22 seconds into Scrooged, Bill Murray's character attempted to reconnect with his lost love. This week in Love Actually, at 22 minutes, 22 seconds, Hugh Grant's newly elected prime minister connects for the first time with his love interest, Natalie (Martine McCutcheon), who is one of the household staff at 10 Downing Street.
David (Hugh Grant) in a meeting with his advisors: ...In fact, who do I have to screw around here to get a cup of tea and a chocolate biscuit?
Enter Natalie (Martine McCutcheon):
ZING!
