story, scrip, acting, soundtrack and Kate Winslet - all brilliant

Rating: 9/10 (28 June 2012)

How could I see this movie so late !!
I am an ardent movie addict and after having watched most of the renowned, acclaimed, super-hits and all such movies from various countries, I find hard to find a good movie.
I do not know how I missed on this one ! " The Holiday " swept me off my feet literally. I have already a little crush on Kate Winslet and this movie yet again made me fell in love again with her. Not to miss the equally charming Diaz and Jude Law. Living in India, holiday rentals is an almost unheard concept for us. So the plot and the idea completely was new to me. More than a love story, this is about finding your inner-self. Its about finding happiness even when chips are down for you. I believe that though this movie hugely kinda runs into a fantasy and a dream world with all the best things happening around at all times. I am more of a close-to-reality movie fan, but no complaints this time, as this is one the most charming love stories that I have seen.
The script of this movie is awesome and equally well acted by all the characters. However, the best part for me in this movie is the soundtrack by Hans Zimmer.
In a nutshell, this is a complete movie for me. 9/10.
