最適合情侶看的十部英文電影
[1] Love Actually 真愛至上
Love Actually
The film begins with a voiceover from David (Hugh Grant) commenting that whenever he gets gloomy
with the state of the world he thinks about the arrivals terminal at Heathrow Airport, and the pure uncomplicated love felt as friends and families welcome their arriving loved ones. David's voiceover also relates that all the known messages left by the people who died on the 9/11 planes were messages of love and not hate. The film then tells the 'love stories' of many people。
Each story is linked in some way except for Billy Mack and his manager, who are not friends with any of the characters; however, he appears frequently on characters' radios and TVs; his music video provides an important plot device for Sam's pursuit of Joanna; the pair also cross paths with the other characters in the closing Heathrow scene. John and Judy work with Tony who is best friends with Colin who works for a catering company that works at the office where Sarah, Karl, Mia, and Harry work and also catered Peter and Juliet's wedding.。。
這是一出10個愛情故事竄成的喜劇雜燴：失去母親的小男孩終日鬱鬱寡歡，繼父不知該如何安慰。當他得知繼子喜歡上學校裏最美的女孩，便熱烈地鼓勵兒子去追。小男孩爲了贏得小女孩的關注，廢寢忘食地練習架子鼓，只爲了在聖誕節的晚會上能與她同臺演出。勇敢的他，甚至爲了最後的一記道別瀟灑地突破機場的安檢區。兩個孩子的母親面對了婚姻危機。丈夫感情出軌，把項鍊送給了別的女人，給她的，則僅是一張她熱愛的女歌手的CD。她找了藉口倉皇躲入臥室，在歌聲中隱忍啜泣。轉個身，又誇張地大笑着，迎向嬌女愛子歡喜的面容。 丈夫最終幡然醒悟。
