Some of the UK’s biggest stars - Emma Thompson, Keira Knightey, Martin Freeman, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Hugh Grant - are still best remembered for appearing in British filmmaker Richard Curtis’ winning and whimsical ensemble romantic-comedy. It’s cheesy, sure, but it’s also a big-hearted and beguiling exploration of love and its many complexities.
