Jamie Proposes to Aurelia


Call me an old romantic softie, but my Christmases are never complete without a showing of 'Love Actually'.

I suppose this must be the most popular scene in the film. Something to enjoy on a Sunday morning.

I love that movie! I haven't watched it in a long time.

Cro Magnon said...

Along with 'It's a Wonderful Life', it's my must watch Christmas movie.

I'm going with my daughter to the Symphony Hall in Birmingham in December as the film is being screened and a live orchestra performing the music. It's one of our favourite Christmas films and we are very much looking forward to it.

It's also my husband's favourite scene. I'm usually shouting 'don't do it!' as Harry phones Mia.

Cro Magnon said...

That sounds like fun. I've never heard of that being done.

Cro Magnon said...

It's beautifully filmed, with a few excellent cameo roles. I particularly like the woman by his side.

Did you need to make me cry so early on a Sunday morning!!!

Yorkshire Pudding said...

I have never seen "Love Actually" and have no intention of ever watching it.

Not a film I've ever seen, though read and heard much about it. It seems a firm favourite with many people. We have no local cinema and I don't watch much TV, so the odds are that I'll miss it next time it's shown.

Cro Magnon said...

Probably yes!

Cro Magnon said...

I'll let them know.

Cro Magnon said...

It's pure entertainment from beginning to end. I've seen it maybe four times, and I'd happily watch it again.

I notice that, with the exception of YP's predictable and veiled pseudo macho or superior response, your commenters are all female so far. Well I'm not afraid to say that I've watched it several times and would watch it again. Sometimes it is good to relax and be carefree.

Cro Magnon said...

It's simply a piece of well-crafted entertainment. Good fun.

Susan said...

We all need a little more: "Happily ever after" on the big screen or even better in real life.

John Going Gently said...

It’s a lovely part of the film and one which has the sweetest music the Portuguese theme

Cro Magnon said...

I never watch films with violence, explosions, or car chases, so this for me is perfect.

Cro Magnon said...

I love the translation of his words.

Rian said...

Cro, you liking that movie is a 'telling'... similar to a person who's kind to animals (IMO).

Having been a long time fan of Alan Rickman, I always cringe when he meets Emma Thompson at the airport. Yes, I know it's not real !!

Cro Magnon said...

Both apply to me. I am also a great animal lover.

Cro Magnon said...

I'm not a fan of ET, she's a good actress, etc, but I find something very unattractive about her.

River said...

YP, why?
