This film absolutely kills me. I cry and laugh alternately throughout. The acting's amazing, the wending storylines clever and well put together. Ugh, I am all sniffly. And Alan Rickman is wonderful.

As with a lot of films with multiple storylines I like some of the stories in this and detest others. My favorite is probably the one with Colin Firth and the Portugese girl just because Colin Firth does charming but inept Englishman so brilliantly and the girl is lovely. My most hated is the one with Keira Knightly. If my boyfriend's best friend turned up and told me he loved me and showed me his stalker-tastic video of me I would think he was the shittest friend ever and promptly dob him in to my boyfriend who would hopefully give him the kicking he oh so richly deserved.

I really love the Keira/Andrew Lincoln storyline. I can totally empathise with a man who hides his feelings of total adoration for someone with a haughty contempt, partly out of loyalty to his best friend, and partly due to being an emotional cripple.
The one thing I didn't like about the film was the absolute unneccessaryness of seeing the breasts of both Laura Linney and Joanna Page. There was just no need for the nipples - NO NEED!

I love this movie, the only story i don't like is the one with Martine, her accent is so annoying. I also love the music during the video scene, despite Keira's freaky smile.

Colin Firth and the Portugese girl Fascinating fact, fact fans! The Portuguese girl sang in the 1996 Eurovision for Portugal. She had a ukelele. Amazing.

I still cry at the resolution of the Colin Firth-Portuguese lady story.

I adore all of it apart from the Keira Knightley bits. Girl cannot act for shit. She is the same in EVERY FILM.
