Love Actually is a Christmas favourite the world over but almost two decades on from its 2003 release, people are noticing incredible details.
Case in point, this extra, who is being praised for her 'Oscar-worthy' performance in the classic holiday film:
The incredible performance takes place during a scene with Billy Nighy's character, ageing rockstar Billy Mack.
Despite having just one line in the film, this random extra completely steals the show in her scene which sees her hand a mobile phone to the actor.

"It's for you babe," she says before pulling off what can only be described as the ultimate rendition of drunkenness.
As Billy speaks on the phone, she can be seen jokingly raising an eyebrow at him before tilting her head to the side.
She then tucks into her drink - which appears to be either white wine or prosecco - before sitting down on a piano in front of him.
"It's gonna be a very good Christmas," Billy says, to the cheers of everyone else in the room.

The hilarious clip was uploaded to TikTok with overlay that read: "A moment please for this woman's Oscar worthy acting.
"Proof that there are truly no small parts in a film. Show-stealing performance."
The TikToker, @@theuncertwenties, then joked in the caption: "She was robbed of her Oscar."

The clip itself went far from unnoticed on the social media website, and since it was posted on December 21, it's already been viewed over a million times.
Viewers were quick to flood the comments section with additional praise for the extra's acting.
One wrote: "This woman has my mind in a chokehold when I think of Love Actually."
"I SAY THIS EVERY YEAR. She knew rent was due," praised a second.

"Honestly I have thought about this woman for years hahahaha [sic]," added a third while a fourth wrote: "They gave her the one dangly earring and she was like 'yes I know who this character is.'"
"This film is truly a mix of excellent performances and chaotic ones," remarked a sixth. "Mia saying 'you're not who I think you are... ARE YOU?!' deserves a Razzie."
"In this scene, I have eyes for her and only her," joked a seventh.
"I live for this woman's part every time I watch this film," wrote an eighth. And a ninth added: "Every year her eyebrow breathes live into the whole film!!!"

Well, one thing is for sure, we will never be able to watch Love Actually the same way again.
