As the winter holidays approach, among people's most beloved activities is doing a binge-watching session of their favorite Christmas classics. From Miracle on 34th Street to A Christmas Carol, there are countless films to choose from that evoke the festive spirit. However, not all the now-beloved titles were well-received when they came out.
✕ Remove Ads 7 The Holiday Directed By Nancy Meyers Every year, as December approaches, many people around the world find a two-hour escape as they dream of ending up in the cozy and idyllic British cottage of Kate Winslet and falling in love with Jude Law. The plot of The Holiday focuses on two women, who, lonely for the upcoming festivities, decide to swap homes to flee their current reality.
