Description
Iris (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 Amandas lavish L.A. pad while Amanda arrives at Iris picturesque cottage right outside London. When Iris 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 wont be in town for long. Iris for her part is busy mending her heart in sunny California befriending Amandas 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 Winslets thespian charms Laws dimples and the high-fashion wardrobes quite enough to give them their chick-flick fix.
