16. Love Actually: Defining True 'Love', Healthy vs Unhealthy Relationships, and Pitching our Best Hallmark Christmas Movie
In the 16th episode of the Cinema Sessions podcast, friends and holly jolly therapists Rick, Kailah, and Michael sit down to discuss the 2003 Christmas romantic comedy, Love Actually. They start off by pitching their very own Hallmark movies (not a sponsor) with hilarious results, and dive deep into this beloved holiday flick. They explore what constitutes love, what makes the movie so rewatchable, weird workplace power dynamics, and how the film’s large cast & interwoven storylines impact the overall viewing experience. For therapeutic themes, they ask whether the pairings in the film model fidelity, faithfulness, sacrifice, and commitment. And most importantly, WE WANNA KNOW WHAT LOVE IS?! You won’t be the same after listening to this packed Yuletide episode!
Hosted by Rick Guttersohn and Kailah Ayres-Tuttle
