For Jude Law in The Holiday?
He’s a widower, a single dad of 2 primary aged girls, and he goes out on the piss and makes a last minute unannounced decision to stay at his sisters’ then the very next morning invites his shag to dinner with friends in the pub that night.
Who is looking after the kids?! A widow with 2 children would be called a slapper for doing this and someone on MN would probably call 101 on her even though they know it’s just a film.
Im also calling it that Miles, Jack Black’s character, is a prick. He’s overbearing with his girlfriend and bossy - when he’s trying to get into Amanda’s mansion (BTW do movie trailer makers really afford these houses in their mid-30’s?!) Maggie his GF is on the phone and he says “Come on Maggie this is the important flute section” (referring to the music he composed playing on their car radio). This is meant to demonstrate that she’s unsupportive and rude. However if my DH interrupted my phone conversation and demanded I listened to his shit jingle he’d be getting told to fuck right off. We are meant to believe that the wonderful Kate Winslet in her lovely character of Iris falls for this inept unattractive buffoon when Rufus Sewell offers it to her on a plate! Bollocks
I may be overthinking it all - I’m ill and so can’t sleep and I’m watching easy-watch TV 
PS Cary Grant is not from Surrey. That is all
