Today Kait & JJ are joined by Lacy Abercrombie to psycho-analyze The Holiday. 

Introduction

Hey hey hey fammm! We’re back this week with another episode in our mini series on being single during the holidays. Today’s is a little different though, as I’m sure you guessed by the title. Today we’re taking your favorite holiday rom-coms and psycho-analyzing them!!! This is a fun one you don’t want to miss out on. Let’s jump in! 

Psycho-Analysis of The Holiday 

Cameron Diaz aka Amanda Woods

Lacey loves Amanda and relates to her the most. It’s super interesting that Amanda doesn’t cry, she has suppressed emotions. We would say her attachment style is avoidant. She gets cheated on and can only really show anger. She’s a total workaholic and has a lot of masculine energy. She does everything herself and doesn’t NEED a man. She’s definitely an enneagram 8 wing 7. 

Jude Law aka Graham

Graham is Amanda’s love interest. JJ thinks he’s TOO perfect, you don’t see a bad side of him. Graham is really emotionally healthy for the most part. He might still be grieving the loss of his wife, which could end up problematic. He’s a romantic, a WEEPER, and selfless. We’re thinking he probably leans anxious when it comes to attachment, but he might be secure. He’s probably an enneagram 2, he really doesn’t want to be a burden to others. His downfall may be that he does admit to sleeping with multiple women, probably out of grief. 

Kate Winslet aka Iris

Such a GREAT name. Iris is who Kait relates to the most. Iris is the hopeless romantic that is desperate for attention. She’s obsessed with unrequited love. She lacks confidence and so that’s why she’s probably accepting the scraps of love from Jasper. We think her attachment style is probably ambivalent because she really goes back and forth. As far as the enneagram goes, she’s probably an enneagram 2, the people pleaser OR enneagram 9, the peacekeeper. 

Jasper

We don’t have much to say about him other than that he’s narcissistic and very manipulative. 

Jack Black aka Miles

JJ thinks he’s the most like Miles in the movie. He lacks confidence a bit and always puts himself down. He’s a bit of a hopeless romantic, and ends up being blind to red flags. Towards the end of the you can tell he’s going to be a committed, steady partner. He’s definitely an enneagram 7 wing 6. He’s the life of the party and loves to have FUN, but has a strong sense of dedication. We think he leans a bit anxious but mainly secure. He’s so dorky and fun and has a flair to his personality. 

Amanda Woods x Graham

They’re so opposite but Graham teaches her and helps her get in touch with her heart and be vulnerable. It’s so sweet and by the end she’s able to cry. Amanda learns how to trust again. Gram re-opens his heart to love after the death of his wife which provides him with hope. 

Iris x Miles

BY the end Iris gets her main character energy. She’s not hiding behind others anymore and this is beautiful! She finds her backbone and stands up to Jasper, it’s so good! She knows her worth and value and stands up for what she needs. She didn’t change because of Miles, she kind of found this on her own. Miles also finds so much confidence during this time. A healthy relationship should leave you encouraged and instill confidence in you.
