I have always wondered: What’s the purpose of Christmas? Is it merely a traditional ritual

to celebrate the birth of Jesus? Is it a perfect reason to plunge into an orgy of food and

fun? Or, is it but a joke, bearing the intention to make those happy people happier and the

lonely ones even lonelier? Thanks to Love Actually, one of my favourite films, the

answer to the mystery was finally unveiled. Following the paths of eight couples and the

ways they cope with their ups and downs in love and relationships during the month of

chaos preceding Christmas, this hilarious rom-com creates a unique evocation of

Christmas: without any plan or agenda, to express, to confess and to reveal (编者注:此处应

改为“without any plan or agenda to express, confess or reveal”) the existence of our

deep-buried, long-forgotten, but most cherished emotion in the world, an emotion that

makes us mad and miserable but manage (编者注:此处应改为“manages”) to remind us

that we are alive and why we are. Christmas is a time for us to rediscover the ubiquity of

love. We endure the maddeningly complicated food preparation in steaming kitchens; we

squeeze through the torrent of crowds and packed shops; we hunt for the perfect

presents despite the hectic hustle and bustle of holiday shopping; and we crack our heads

trying to figure out the first line on a Christmas card―not (编者注:此处应加上“so”) much

because we need to or have to, but because we would love to. 本文为全文原貌 未安

it is not particularly dignified or newsworthy,” as the film tells, “but it’s always

there―fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, husbands and wives, boyfriends,

girlfriends, old friends. When the planes hit the Twin Towers as far as I know, none of the

phone calls from the people on board were messages of hate and revenge. They were all

messages of love. If you look for it, I’ve got a sneaky feeling you’ll find that love actually

is all around.” … I love it for it speaks the universal language of love that ignores

all the differences between peoples and nations and serves as the source of inspiration for

Christmas, as all its other equivalents in different cultures, is a timely reminder of the fact

that our world is not a place of hatred and greed, and our life is not about the prosperity

in our bank accounts or the climbs up the social ladders; we are living for something
