昨天看了"The Holiday". 原本只是被他的卡司吸引，想說應該是一部標準的chick flicks。怎知裡面的對白居然深深的觸動我心，一邊看一邊像個白痴在那邊點頭。不得不佩服這部戲的Director and Screenwriter, Nancy Meyers. 她總是能將這樣陳腐的愛情電影拍的如此有格調，就像她執導的"What Women Want"和"Something's Gotta Give"一般。但The Holiday是目前我最喜歡的一部。尤其是Kate Winslet在戲裡的角色，真是代表了大部分在愛情裡受過傷的現代女性。我最愛她裡面和Jack Black的一段對手戲:
“Why am I attracted to a person I know it’s no good?” says Miles.
“I happened to know the answer to this. Because you’re hoping you’re wrong. And every time she does something that tells you she’s no good, you ignore it. And every time she comes through and surprises you, she wins you over…and you lose that argument with yourself that she’s not for you.” Says Iris.
“Exactly!”

“Listen, I know it’s hard to believe people when they say, ‘I know how you feel’. But I actually know how you feel.” Iris goes on, “You see…I was seeing someone…back in London…It turned out that he wasn’t in love with me like I thought. What I am trying to say is… I understand the feeling as small and as insignificant as humanly possible. And how it can actually ache in places that you didn’t know you had inside you. It doesn’t matter how many new haircuts you get…or gyms you join…or how many glasses of chardonnay you drink with your girlfriends, you still go to bed every night going through every detail and wonder what you did wrong or how you could have misunderstood. And how in the hell in that brief moment, you could think you were that happy? And sometimes you can even convince yourself that he’ll see the light and show up at your door. But after all that, however long “all that” may be, you’ll go somewhere new. And you’ll meet people who make you feel worthwhile again. And little pieces of your soul will finally come back. And all that fuzzy stuff, those years of your life that you wasted, that will eventually begin to fade.”
