Renaissance 2.0
Updated on 11/9/2013 for 10th anniversary of “Love, Actually” released in 2003. Despite some awful moments, I still love “Love, Actually” (2003) which is celebrating its 10th anniversary. It’s become a Christmas regular treat for me. There are so many wonderful love stories woven throughout the movie. My Favorite Storylines I really enjoyed the scenes…
I think I love the “The Family Man” (2000) because it reminds me so much of my all-time favorite movie, “It’s a Wonderful Life” (1946).
