Love Actually

Love Actually (2003) — watch online Richard Curtis's romantic comedy on iFILM. A British ensemble film from Working Title Films: ten separate love stories, all running at the same time, all set in London during the five weeks before Christmas.

The British Prime Minister (Hugh Grant) falls for a junior staffer. A writer (Colin Firth) retreats to the South of France after a breakup and falls for his Portuguese housekeeper despite sharing no common language. A wife (Emma Thompson) starts to suspect her husband (Alan Rickman) is pulling away. A widower (Liam Neeson) coaches his lovesick stepson through a first crush. An aging rock star (Bill Nighy) stumbles back into the charts with a shameless holiday cover. Keira Knightley, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Martin Freeman, and Laura Linney fill out the rest of the grid — each story a different shape of the same problem.

Curtis directed the film himself — his debut behind the camera after writing Four Weddings and a Funeral and Notting Hill. The film grossed over $250 million worldwide on a $40 million budget, and its 20th anniversary trailer in 2023 drew as much attention as a new release. Stream Love Actually (2003) online on iFILM.
