العودة للمنزل من أجل العطلات

"Nobody means what they say on Thanksgiving, Mom. That's what the holiday is all about. Torture." - Claudia That is my favorite line in this, one of my favorite movies. This is a holiday at anyone's home: a congregation of people you love beyond comprehension and hate beyond belief but are bound to by blood. There are so many wonderful and true moments in this film both funny and dramatic, that I cannot possibly name them all except to say that these moments, even the one between the sisters near the end, are what we give thanks for even if they are painful. Yes family gatherings are dreaded, but once they are over we are happy to have attended, because somewhere amidst the chaos we remember why we love these people, where we came from, who we are, and what is truly important in this life. coming to realizations such as this inevitably involves torture. we would much rather not think about it... this movie forces us to. Great movie.

Home for the Holidays

Love this film . I'm glad it's growing in popularity .

This has become a classic for me, i watch it year after year around the Holiday season. It is a deep movie, with love, laughs & family drama. It makes me think of my family, gives me that feeling of "home". It may hit too close to home for those that have unhappy family ties, mine are close and we all get along so this doesn't ring true for me. Regardless, it's a great film!

I have never written a review before, though I am frequently on IMDB, but now I think it is my duty to let prospective watchers of this movie know that it is really very good. Holly Hunter, Robert Downey Jr, and Anne Bancroft are all highlights. Cynthia Stevenson and Geraldine Chaplin are great too. The story is funny and smart, and Jodie Foster got most of the details right on. Rent this movie on Thanksgiving for the full effect; I do every year.

It was only just a few years ago that I discovered what I can only describe as an ALL-year-round viewing pleasures movie in 1995s Home For The Holidays! It is a; heart-warming, charming, delightfully funny movie with what I believe to be an All-star cast and an A List Director. IF you are looking for a movie to add to your collection look no further than Home For The Holidays. Rest in peace Ms. Anne Bancroft and Mr. Charles Durning true Hollywood Legends.

Looking at the end credits, the first 9 cast listed are enough star power to illuminate the night. Fantastic cast, stellar performances. Chaotic, peculiar, odd, family dynamics but a wonderful premise that matures at the end of the film. It is the brief, singular moments that rise rise above the clamour of our lives that our resting souls will remember. Great direction from Jodie Foster. I give this film an 8 (great) out of 10. {Frenetic Family Drama}

This is a great little gem of a film. The whole time i was watching this film i couldn't help but notice the similarities to my family. The craziness, the fights i mean everything. I laughed so hard during this film but mostly when Robert Downey Jr. was on screen. It is not to say that Holly Hunter was bad, she was quite good as was everyone else but Downey had this presense on the screen and he just stole the movie. while it was apparent he was using heavily he was still at his best on screen. The DVD commentary by Jodie Foster really gives insight to the film and it really sounds like Downey was a pain to work with because of his improvising everything but you feel she has a genuine sisterly love for him. Bottom line is that it was a funny, insightful, and realistic film.
