Or you may rather own the movie and have it take pride of place in your DVD or Blu-Ray collection.

What is The Holiday about?

A festive feel-good rom-com, here is the official synopsis for The Holiday: “Dumped and depressed, English rose Iris agrees to swap homes with similarly unlucky in love Californian Amanda for a much-needed break. Iris finds herself in a palatial Hollywood mansion while Amanda navigates the lanes of a picture-perfect English village. Soon enough, both lovelorn ladies bump into local lads perfect for a romantic pick-me-up.”
