The Holiday

That The Holiday is actually a secret Lindsay Lohan movie is the hill I will die on, thank you very much.

Bear with me, because I’m about to explain why one tiny scene in this classic holiday flick not only pushes this film into LiLo territory, but also adds to the already firm brilliance of The Holiday.

In the film, Cameron Diaz’s Amanda produces movie trailers for a living. (Which is enough to be able to afford an affluent Los Angeles mansion, I guess.)

There is a scene in which we watch one of her trailers in progress, where we are blessed with none other than Lindsay Lohan starring in the trailer of this insanely enticing fake-looking movie.

In what looks like a spy-action thriller also starring James Franco, Lindsay plays Rebecca Green, who becomes embroiled in some kind of espionage plot as a result of her mysterious father figure’s past. It’s the perfect gag film plot that one could definitely imagine Lohan starring in.

“I never met my father,” she tells James Franco’s character as they run for cover.

“Well, at least now you know he was interesting,” Franco quips.

We then get treated to clips of Franco firing shots in slow motion, the pair running away from explosions, and perhaps even a hint of some romantic subplot.

Let me tell you, I thought this was a real film for years. And, quite frankly, with Lohan playing this skit with the upmost seriousness and dedication, we’re kind of upset that it’s not.

The Holiday is available to watch on Prime Video
