The Holiday

Watched this movie last night. I really did think it was brilliant. I don't often like viewing movies of this sort as they are quite predictable. Classic tale of women who aren't loved by their men. Cameron Diaz plays a movie trailer maker whose boyfriend has recently cheated on her. She dumps him, then searches the internet for a place to run away to. Finding a house swap site, she meets Iris (Kate Winslet), who is from a small village in England. Having grand man problems of her own Iris agrees to swap houses. Both characters grow in their new homes. Throw in some Jack Black and some Jude Law, the movie becomes rather charming.
I suggest it.
This write up was arse.

On a rather interesting side note. Arthur, who is the old man in the movie that Winslet Befriends, played Mr. Freeze on the Original Batman series Duo Defy and Ice spy 1967
Cheers
yeah so what I'm an old show geek.
