Home for the Holidays

Description

By Jodie Foster. Starring Holly Hunter, Robert Downey Jr., Anne Bancroft. "For the holidays, going home is the only thing that matters," asserts Perry Como in the song that gives its title to Jodie Foster's second film as a director. But for Claudia Larson, a single mother of a teenager and laid off by her boss, returning to her parents' home for Thanksgiving feels like hell on earth. "But who are these people? Where do I actually come from?" So she calls her brother for help. Drama and comedy intertwine as family unspoken truths burst forth with as much spring as the turkey ready to land on the lap of the most dressed-up guest. Between cruelty and tenderness, Jodie Foster surrounds Holly Hunter with Hollywood stars of all ages, from young Robert Downey Jr. and Claire Danes to Anne Bancroft and Geraldine Chaplin.
