Kate Winslet “Holidays” in America Blonde Kate is one beautiful girl. Her flawless English rose complexion and those big, expressive eyes just grab you when you meet her in person.

Variety: Meyers knows exactly what women want In a spirited cast that exudes more collective star wattage than any of Meyers’ earlier vehicles, the Brits easily outshine their Yank counterparts.

Screen Daily: Queen of saccharine returns Her prose is made to look more substantial, however, by an appealing troupe of actors. In her first contemporary English role, Kate Winslet is enormously disarming as a young woman tormented by her unrequited love; Jude Law has never been this engaging as her brother Graham, showing comic skill and buckets of charm.
