When, shortly after Thanksgiving, Eliza (Hope Davis) discovers a love letter to her husband (Stanley Tucci) from an unknown woman, she heads into the city from Long Island to investigate—taking her parents (Pat McNamara and Anne Meara), her sister (Parker Posey), and her sister’s boyfriend (Liev Schreiber) along for the ride. Cue a day of familial chaos.
Home for the Holidays (1995)
Based on a short story by Chris Radant, Jodie Foster’s Home for the Holidays assembles the quintessential dysfunctional family out of a star-studded cast: Holly Hunter (playing Claudia, a recently fired art restorer who flies home to Baltimore for Thanksgiving), Robert Downey Jr. (as Tommy, Claudia’s younger brother), Dylan McDermott (as Leo, Tommy’s friend), Anne Bancroft (as Adele, her mother), Charles Durning (as Henry, her father), Geraldine Chaplin (as Aunt Glady, Adele’s sister), and Claire Danes (as Kitt, Claudia’s daughter), among others.
