A writer falls for his maid, who speaks only Portuguese. A businessman married to the substantial Emma Thompson falls for his sultry secretary. The same attraction of unequals animated 2003's holiday hit, Richard Curtis's "Love Actually." The witty and sophisticated British prime minister, played by Hugh Grant, falls for the chubby girl who wheels the tea and scones into his office. Picture Faye Dunaway in "Network" if she'd had to stay home, or Glenn Close in "Fatal Attraction" without the charm. The wife, played by Téa Leoni, is repellent: a jangly, yakking, overachieving, overexercised, unfaithful, shallow she-monster who has just lost her job with a commercial design firm. Sandler without being able to speak English, is presented as the ideal woman. In James Brooks's "Spanglish," Adam Sandler, as a Los Angeles chef, falls for his hot Mexican maid.
