Movie Reviews of Home for the Holidays

Movie Review: Home for the Holidays
Summary: 5 Stars

A thanksgiving movie with just enough dysfunction most of us can relate. Great cast and script. A favorite of my family.

Summary of Home for the Holidays

On the fourth thursday in november 84 million american families will gather together.. And wonder why. Studio: Tcfhe/mgm Release Date: 10/17/2006 Starring: Holly Hunter Steve Guttenberg Run time: 103 minutes Rating: Pg13 Director: Jodie Foster
Holly Hunter plays a Chicago-based single mom who--on the day before Thanksgiving--loses her job and is informed by her daughter of the latter's intention to surrender her virginity while on a weekend-long affair. If that's not enough, Hunter's character then has to fly to Baltimore to join her fractious family for another difficult Thanksgiving. Robert Downey Jr. is terrifically charming as her prankish, gay brother, and Anne Bancroft and Charles Durning show plenty of comic resilience during the predictably interesting Thanksgiving dinner scene. The script by W.D. Richter (Brubaker) avoids the usual clich?s in family dramas--the deepest, darkest secret revealed here involves the painfully sweet revelation of a 40-year-old crush. Jodie Foster, directing her second feature, focuses instead on the inevitable softening of old grudges and disappointments with time. This is a wise as well as wonderfully fun movie. --Tom Keogh
