All Connected




“Love Actually” doesn't have one specific main character but is yet made up of eight love stories that are portrayed in different aspects. “Seperate stories involving a wide variety of individuals, many of whom are shown to be interlinked as their tales progess” (Wikipedia 1). After Juliet marry's Peter, Peter's best friend Mark reveals he is in love with Juliet. Jamie goes to attend Peter and Juliets wedding when he finds out his wife has cheated on him with his brother. Jamie leaves and falls in love with his housekeeper Aurelia who doesn't speak the same language. They both learn how to speak eachother's language and Jamie proposes to her. Meanwhile Harry manages a business and he buys an expensive necklace for his secretary Mia even though he is married to Karen. Karen is suspicous and tells her problems to her brother David and her friend Daniel but they have just as much problems of their own. David has just become Prime Minister and falls for a girl named Natalie who helps out around the house. Natalie moves when the United States president makes a move on her and David ends up finding her and winning her over. Daniel has lost his wife and attempts to help his stepson Sam to tell the girl he loves Joanna how he feels. Sam practices the drums and ends up playing at the school play while Joanna sings. Sam later ends up catching her at the airport as she is leaving for the United States to tell her how he feels. Sarah works at Harry's company and Harry tells her to go after the one she loves and that is Karl. Her brother who is mentally ill needs her and she is forced to stay with him instead. Colin trys to win over Mia, Harry's assistant and fails so he tells Tony he is going to the United States to find love and he eventually ends up meeting four women at a bar. Tony is an assistant of a movie where John and Judy do sex scenes and eventually develop a relationship off camera. All these characters are main characters and are connected in some way through their stories. They are each just as important so I decided that I needed to include them all. They each represent something different to this comedy and it shows how love can be in all different ways with all different people.
