Is Love Actually actually about love? Or is it more about infatuation? Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright rank the relationships in Love, Actually to show which ones are the healthiest, and which ones seemed doomed for failure (or at least some pretty major problems to work through.) Love Actually is in love with the idea of love, but there's a difference between love, lust, and infatuation -- it takes a lot more to make a lasting relationship work than the infatuation most of the relationships in this movie are based on. Among a cast of great actors, Emma Thompson's and Alan Rickman's performances are (unsurprisingly) phenomenal and moving, and give us a chance to learn how to rebuild a damaged relationship. But even with the several bad relationships that teach us what not to do, there are also some good romantic relationships, friendships, and family relationships we can learn from too.
