Down in the dumps about her love life, Iris (Kate Winslet) steps out of her comfort zone and agrees to an international house swap with a woman named Amanda (Cameron Diaz), who's LA lifestyle proves to be more gloomy than sunny. Trading in her stilettos for snow boots, Amanda makes her way to a secluded English village where a chance encounter introduces her to Graham (Jude Law), Iris's very handsome brother. Meanwhile, Iris finds herself rather smitten by Amanda's musically talented neighbour (Jack Black). While The Holiday may be considered one of the most quintessential Christmas movies of the holiday season, the characters' storylines come to wrap on New Year's Eve with a celebration guaranteed to make your heart melt into a million tiny little pieces.
