Welcome to 'Don't You Want Me?' - a podcast series taking a lighthearted look at the most relatable, intriguing and dysfunctional relationships in film.

In this episode, we’re whipping up some Christmas fettuccine with 2006’s The Holiday, written, produced and directed by Nancy Meyers. Twinkling with a cast of A-listers and boasting a very popular Hans Zimmer score, over the last decade or so The Holiday has been slowly but surely nudging Richard Curtis’s Love Actually out of top position as the 21st century’s most revisited mistletoe comedy. What is it about this combination of mini marshmallows, eyelid snogs and nods to old Hollywood that gets us feeling fuzzy in December? Let’s pop some napkins on our heads and discuss. If you enjoy this episode please consider leaving us a nice rating or a corny review on your podcast app of choice. We like corny. We want corny in our life….. And we have a very special guest joining us for this cashmere edition, it’s the host of the 90 Minutes or Less Film Fest podcast as well as The Holiday Season, a podcast dedicated to this very film we’re covering tonight! It’s movie expert and Nancy Meyers’ head cheerleader, Sam Clements.
