The Holiday


I don’t remember how many times I watch this by now. I’m the kind of person who usually do not watch a movie twice. I got this DVD from a friend, watched it a couple of times at home and again with a friend who I thought may not like it for the fact he is 85, but to my surprise, he loved it! The reason I thought he would not enjoy it because at a big picture, it’s a love story but actually there are inspiring parts in the movie.

Very entertaining and well written. I like the four of them, the sophisticate Kate Winslet, the pretty and funny Cameron Diaz, the handsome Jude Law and the hilarious Jack Black.
The two women who were heart broken exchange house for the holiday, unexpectedly found their love…
I like all the earrings they wear! hahaha, yes, being an earrings lover, I noticed that!
As sentimental as I am…the words that Kate Winslet says in one part totally touch my feelings. Sometimes I think those who marry their first love/boyfriend are so lucky but then if I’m one of them, I may not be able to feel it when I watch these love stories which make it more interesting…. So, I mean I can cry with them, melt when their heart melt, jump and said “yes, totally true!” when they give an analogy to the situation they are in….and all that 0_0
It also makes me appreciate so much on what I have and to also get a clear picture of what I need.

Some quotes from the movie, "You should be the leading lady of your own life” … “i know how you can actually ache in places you never know you had inside you.”
Enough said, I just love this movie…. the settings are very nice too and the score is great.

  2. Hehe, this is a 2006 movie. Hope you like it, enjoy! Nancy Meyers, the writer and director of this movie is also the director of What Women Want. A film from a woman perspective is so heartwarming good!
