The Holiday

A bit the reminiscent of Love, Actually, but mostly happy (I'd better defend myself that i am not adverse to happy, by the way). But nothing that would have Joni Mitchell sadly crooning Both Sides Now in the background (which is a very nice moody song).

* Warning: May contain spoilers ahead *

I looooove Amanda's house. Although maybe I'd like a few more black furniture around (winks).

I like the loop we were thrown regarding Graham's status. The girls are so super adorable, especially the youngest. And the fairy-princess-tent is such a sweet indulgence of a single dad.

Kate Winslet's mannerism reminding me much of Emma Thompson. Jack Black is a cute Teddy Bearish character. Loved the scene when he was humming soundtracks at the video store, with the special cameo of Dustin Hoffman when he held up the The Graduate DVD.

So do you know that the characters were especially written for the 4 main leads in mind? And Dustin Hoffman literally walked into his cameo role? Cool.

A nice, watchable feel-good movie. Go see.
