For tweens and teens I recommend Her Interactive's Nancy Drew series (I love them and I am definitely not a tween or teen anymore). Now before you write off getting them for a nephew or son, I give copies of these games to my nephews (10 and 11) and they love them. They don't care Nancy is a girl, they only care that she has really cool adventures.
For Adults, try either of these 3 games: Myst (starting from the second game in the series) these games are eset on different world where you have to explore, read and puzzle out clues to find out the answer to a number of questions. Amazing graphics, great story, very little charater interaction. Syberia, another straight forward adventure, where exploration is the name of the game, you need to winkle out clues,

Plus, you should be able to play any of these games on your desktop. That's right, no X-Box, no Game Cube, no Playstation. Just a computer and a mouse. Wasn't that easy?
Finally, I love, love, love Kate Winslet. I have ever since I saw her in the movie Sense and Sensibility. Recently, I caught the trailer for her new movie The Holiday. This movie looks like so much fun! And just tell me if the opening bit doesn't just make you wonder if she would have made a better Bridget Jones than Renee Zellweger.
