Bend it like Beckham
Drama-comedy from 2002. Jess, or Jesminder as her Indian family calls her, loves to play fotball in the park with her male friends. The family don't like it, her mother wants her to learn more about cooking instead. Then she meets Jules who help her join a girl's fotball team and Jess realise that she will have to lie to her family to be able to do what she loves. I watched it without subtitles.

Pride and Prejucide
Drama from 2005 based on a novel by Jane Austen. I have seen this film before, read the book and watched the BBC series from 1995 several times. It's about the Bennet family who has five daughters that they (or at least the mother) want to find husbands for. Then they get a new neighbour... The film has several well-known actors like Keira Knightley, Matthew Macfadyen, Judi Dench and Donald Sutherland. The pace is quite fast compered to the tv-series which of course is not that strange. I watched it with English subtitles.

Gosford Park
I have watched a drama taking place in England in autumn 1932. A couple has invited relatives and friends for a hunting weekend. We get to meet people both upstairs and downstairs. The gathering will be interrupted by a burder though... The story is written by Julian Fellows (the man behind Downton Abbey) and even though this film has lots of famous actors the story isn't that interesting. I watched it without subtitles.

The Holiday
American film from 2006. Britsh Iris and American Amanda both need to get over someone and through an exchange site online they deside to swop houses for two weeks over Christmas. Iris ends up in a big house with a pool in sunny L.A. and Amanda arrives to a snowy English countryside and a little stone cottage. They will both meet new people that will change their lives. Not my favourite category of film but this was quite good. I watched it with English subtitles.
