It’s been a decade since the release of Love Actually, and every Christmas season, because of its strangely enduring popularity, we pop-culture websites trot the movie out and dissect it again. This year, on its 10th Anniversary, it seems that it’s being deconstructed even more than recent years. Mother Jones is asking “Why Does Love Actually Matter?,” Alyssa Rosenberg over on ThinkProgress has reframed it as a tragedy, and The Atlantic is having an argument with itself, with two opposing pieces: “Love Actually is the Least Romantic Film of All Time” and “I Will Not Be Ashamed of Loving Love Actually.” These are mostly debates that have already played out on Pajiba.

There’s not a lot of angles left when it comes to Love Actually, but since we love talking about it, I dug up one more, ever so suitable to our Seriously Random List category: The current real-life love interests (spouses, partners) of the cast of Love Actually, which is probably more interesting to us in the States because we don’t really know who most of these (mostly) British actors are married to. It’s a little voyeuristic, but it will satisfy a curiosity itch you didn’t know you had.
