In this episode, our Christmas gift to you is deep diving 2006’s movie The Holiday. Join us as we discuss who won the movie, how we’d recast the film, and how the lens of Pete Davidson might be able to explain what Kate Winslet’s character saw in Jack Black. Plus, the greatest gift of all: Jude Law with glasses.&nbsp;MENTIONS<ul><li>Love this?
