Additional InformationIris (Kate Winslet) is a British journalist caught in a cycle of unrequited love with her co-worker, Jasper (Rufus Sewell). Jasper does his best to lead her on, and when he announces his engagement to another woman in the office, Iris is crushed. Meanwhile, across the pond, Amanda (Cameron Diaz) is a highly-strung film trailer editor who has just ended her relationship with Ethan (Edward Burns) after he accuses her of being emotionally unavailable. And, oh yes, he has sort of been sleeping with his receptionist. Broken-hearted, Amanda and Iris make contact through a holiday website and agree to swap homes for two weeks to escape their disastrous personal lives. Iris takes off for AmandaÆs lavish L.A. pad, while Amanda arrives at IrisÆ picturesque cottage right outside London. When IrisÆ brother Graham (Jude Law) knocks at the door one night looking for his sister, he instead encounters Amanda, and sparks soon fly--despite the fact that they both know she won't be in town for long. Iris, for her part, is busy mending her heart in sunny California, befriending AmandaÆs elderly neighbour, and making the acquaintance of film composer Miles (Jack Black.) But her healing is abruptly interrupted when Jasper suddenly appears on her doorstep, having flown halfway round the world to make sure he still has her under his spell. An ocean apart, Iris and Amanda find themselves at the crux of all rom-com crises: how to follow your heart, while still being true to yourself. Fans of the genre will no doubt find Winslet's thespian charms, Law's dimples, and the high-fashion wardrobes quite enough to give them their chick-flick fix.

  • Great for romatics!!!

    Jude law,Cameron Diaz ,make the perfect couple .kate,n jack black,also perfect for each other.Both couples come together through a combination of circumstances , the 2 female stars swop houses 1 comes to Surry ,and the other goes to L.A.In L.A. things develop gradually for kate ,But romance comes very quick for Cameron.Jude law gives a spendid performance as a single parent with 2 young daugthers falling for Cameron. Jack ,and Kate it's more of getting to no you and getting shut of each others opposite numbers which keep coming back to haunt them. It's a resounding success as a very romantic film with some comedy, loved every minute of it .Just shows you women arn't the only ones to cry!!men can and do cry where love is involved.great film.
