This year marks the 20th anniversary of the release of “Love Actually,” writer/director Richard Curtis’ tribute to love and the holiday season which, in the two decades since its release, has become a Christmas classic.

I’ve always liked, but not loved, “Love Actually.” I'm actually more in love with some of the other romantic comedies Curtis has written, including “Bridget Jones’s Diary” — which incidentally could also qualify as a Christmas movie — and “Notting Hill.”
