The Holiday centers on two women: London singleton Iris Simpkins (Winslet), who is woefully in love with a man who's about to marry another woman, and Amanda Woods (Diaz), an L.A. career woman who realizes the man she loves and lives with has cheated on her. Those leading ladies meet online on a home-exchange travel platform and impulsively decide to switch houses for the holiday—Iris moves into Amanda's palatial California digs while Amanda heads across the pond to the snow-covered English countryside. This being a rom-com, of course both women unexpectedly find respective romance on their trip: Amanda with Iris's handsome brother Graham (Law) and Iris with Amanda's film-composer colleague Miles (Black).
Written and directed by Nancy Meyers and starring Cameron Diaz, Jude Law, Kate Winslet, and Jack Black, The Holiday returns to theaters exclusively December 11th for its 20th anniversary. Celebrate two decades of this beloved classic and add it to your collection. https://t.co/3PSiD02WcZ
