Re: KATE WINSLET'S COTTAGE IN "THE HOLIDAY"

I love both the California mansion and the English cottage from that movie!  The cottage is so adorable.  I wish I could spend a week in it for a vacation.

@GingerPeach  I own the CD music soundtrack from Something’s Gotta Give. 

Louis Armstrong sings La Vie En Rose.  I listen to it often.

@Oznell

I was so caught up in the adorable cottage that I overlooked your saying you hadn't seen the movie.

I particularly liked Jack Black in his role.

Thanks for the tip, @GingerPeach and others who've recommended seeing the film.  I feel that I must now, with further drooling over charming interior sets in mind!

@Oznell  Thanks for posting the link. I enjoyed viewing it so much. It is so nice to see a home with individual rooms instead of huge open spaces.

 

Think I will purchase the movie.

It's been a while since I watched the movie so I will have to rewatch it this season.  Thanks for the link.

I'm sure you've read, as I have @Regal Bee, that the open space concept is being phased out.  I am happy about that.  It never worked in offices either.

Or at least give people the option.  Why must it always be one-size-fits-all?

@GingerPeach  Actually, I haven't but it doesn't work for me. I like rooms for a specific purpose in a home. So much more personal.
