Love Actually [DVD]

Product Information

David, who is Karen's brother, is also the recently elected Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Natalie is a new junior member of the household staff at 10 Downing Street. During a meeting with the U.S. President, they come across Natalie, and the president makes some inappropriate comments to David about her. Later, David walks in on Natalie serving tea and biscuits to the President, and it appears that something untoward is happening. Natalie seems embarrassed, and the president has a sly grin on his face. At the following joint press conference, David is uncharacteristically assertive while taking a stand against the President's intimidation techniques. Green, Emma (10 December 2013).

Juliet and Peter's wedding is videotaped by the best man, Mark, where a surprise band plays the Beatles' " All You Need Is Love" as they walk out of the church. Although the couple believe Mark dislikes Juliet, he is actually in love with her. When he evades her requests to see the video he shot at the wedding, she shows up at his flat. Juliet insists she wants them to be friends, but when she views the wedding video Mark recorded, she sees many extreme close-ups of herself and few of Peter's face. She realises Mark's true feelings towards her. After an uncomfortable silence, Mark blurts out that he acts cold out of "self-preservation". Feature Commentary with Director Richard Curtis and Actors Hugh Grant, Bill Nighy and Thomas Sangsters

It is scenes such as Grant’s infamous boogie that render the film utterly ridiculous – and therefore endlessly rewatchable. The idea that “David” is “running the country” or engaging with literally any political issue while he flirts with Maggie Thatcher’s portrait, gets distracted from his job by his sexy secretary, feels “cool” after being elected to office and sings carols on Wandsworth doorsteps is laughable. Well, spoiler alert: that is the entire point. The clue’s in the “com”. We are not watching a film about the British constitution. We are watching a film about love. Actually.
