Ah, Christmas. It's time to trim the tree, spread cheer, and have a lively debate about whether or not Love Actually is the best Christmas movie. Every year debate about the movie's merits rages, but it's a truth universally acknowledged that, while the film has its faults, it still brings joy and happiness to millions during the Christmas season.

We've broken down the film, romantic plotline by romantic plotline, and determined which one was best, in case you're in the mood to do some fast-forwarding this holiday season.
