Home for the Holidays (1995)

  • Summary

  • Marketed as a dysfunctional family romp, 1995's Home for the Holidays is actually a witty drama focusing on different generations' views on keeping up appearances, generational trauma, and minding your own damn business. Perhaps also overshadowed by a challenging production due to Robert Downey, Jr.'s substance abuse issues, this Thanksgiving film marks Jodie Foster's 2nd directorial effort, showing a strong perspective on family life when you're all the black sheep. Dan and Jon share their thoughts on how this film could be revisited 30 years later.
