The dance scene is by far my most favourite part of this whole movie and the fact it's Hugh Grant makes it even better! Love Love Actually 🥰

[@dawnedawe5337]

Dance score is so English and so special it’s magic, nothing better

[@cattogirl999]

The dancing actually is the BEST parr of the movie 😂❤❤❤

[@powerpoint4060]

I loved this Film and this dance scene...hilarious!!!!

[@cameron_0023]

Yep it became the most popular scene in the movie.

[@Liz86000]

I wish Colin Firth had been interviewed as well.

[@lisalandry9346]

I love that scene! Soooo good! 😂

[@barbmcallister2196]

love the dance makes me smile every time! He repeated his moves in his Music and Lyrics character Alex Fletcher.

[@audradaniels4161]

The dance scene is the primary reason I’ve watched this movie so many times lol. I never realized Hugh Grant was grumpy?! He’s always so charming on screen lol….still a huge fan

[@sharronwaterhouse5864]

Total self confessed grump- watch him on graham Norton! He’s class!

[@stevenponte6655]

i was going to say grumpy old man. But he wasnt even old at that time!

[@liliyafaskhutdinova6532]

Agreeee! I can watch this scene on repeat like 10 times in a row before I press play and watch the rest of the movie😄 And honestly, I think he is good! Genuinely happy dance, funny but not in an embarrassing way.

Can’t believe I never saw this

[@BLTKellys]

I remember the way this movie made fun of the Martine McCutcheon character insinuating that she was overweight all the time. It gave me the creeps.

[@az7500]

Hugh Grant cranky? I can believe it

[@patriciaalley1562]

To dance is to live... This could be a quote but I don't know who said it. Hugh seems like a guy I would want to be friends with who would be annoyed by my mere presence. But I would insist.

I love British humor, except for Mr. BEAN. That part was excruciating.

[@LR-ee2uu]

The miserable actor routine is so worn out now. They're trying to be different but there's dozens of them do it.
Hugh Grant is great and so is the dancing scene but he should drop the difficult actor gag, its been used to death in all its forms, its just boring now. 👎

This is a better movie for not having the forced diversity we see today.

[@sarcasticallyrearranged]

Forced diversity?
You mean acknowledging that other people with different skin colors other than white exist?

[@Tez767]

@@sarcasticallyrearranged No, I mean ridiculous over representation.

[@SOULRELIEF22]

GOD IS LOVE.
GOD DEMANDS HOLINESS.
WE CAN ONLY BE HOLY BY BEING WASHED IN THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF JESUS!
THE WORLD IS CONFUSED ABOUT LOVE. DON'T WAIT TOO LATE TO BE MADE WHOLE.
TIME IS WINDING UP!

Oh, put a sock in it!

Too bad Christianity has spread so much hate and fear over the generations.

[@shannonc5988]
