"You got a free cab, you got a free room, and someone who'll listen to your boring stories. I mean, didn't you notice on the plane when you started talking, eventually I started reading the vomit bag?" - Neal

Why watch this? Martin's angry rants and Candy's long-winded yarns are precious!

Plot Summary: This comedy follows the misadventures of Neal Page, an uptight advertising executive desperate to return home to Chicago for Thanksgiving. However, bad weather forces his flight to divert, leading him to reluctantly team up with Del Griffith, a well-meaning but irritating salesman, to navigate various modes of transportation. Their chaotic journey involves a series of travel mishaps and comical conflicts.

Dad's Preview: Another great comedy starring two superb comedic actors. It's Thanksgiving and everybody is trying to get home. Our two strangers encounter all kinds of trouble, so they decide to work together. There's one small issue: mixing a short-tempered snob and an overly-friendly oaf is a match made in hell. Martin and Candy, as they constantly feud, are a pleasure to watch. The real genius is Candy... when he gets real, it breaks your heart.
