Theater Thursday

It's Thursday and that can only mean one thing... it's Theater Thursday! Since this is February aka the month of love, I'm going to feature romantic themed movies for this month! This week's featured movie is, Love Actually.

Is it wrong to do this movie for any other reason besides Christmas? I don't think so. Love Actually is all about love and relationships so I think that makes it a good one to talk about for the month of love. Love Actually has an all star cast and all of them are revolving around LOVE. There's the aging rock star who's had great fame but is now lonely. There's the Prime Minister of England who finds himself attracted to one of his younger co-workers. Then there's the brand new widower who is going to have to learn to love again. There's the married couple who may or may not be falling out of love. Love knows no language barrier and this movie proves it in one relationship.

 

While this movie revolves about love and relationships it also focuses on friendships. It shows best friends, new friends, old friends and families together. It shows how love can affect those friendships.

 

This movie is a classic. It just celebrated it's 10th Anniversary of release and it's become a cult favorite across the world. A lot of people will classify this movie as Christmas because it spans over Thanksgiving and Christmas but I think it's a good one all year long. I can remember watching it over and over the summer that it came out. I think I pay previewed it at least 10 times in two months. I'd hate to go back and see that bill. Anyways... if you've never seen these love stories check it out!
