Actually, there is a little chick flick with him that is also very sweet -- Sarah and Me? or something like that. He plays a widower who's too dense/buried in grief to see that he's fallen in love with the nanny. Totally predictable, but one of those nice films one can watch in mixed company. I know a lot of people hated Love, Actually, and it does have an incredibly schlocky ending, but the individual performances and the exploration of kinds of love -- and not always the obvious ones -- are fantastic.
