Nothing says Thanksgiving quite like the madcap misadventures of PLANES, TRAINS AND AUTOMOBILES.  Steve Martin stars as a tightly wound businessman just trying to get home for the holiday, while John Candy shines as his overly talkative and unexpectedly big-hearted traveling companion. What follows is a hilarious and heartfelt cross-country odyssey filled with flight delays, rental car disasters, and some of the most quotable moments in comedy history.

Directed by John Hughes, this holiday classic is a laugh-out-loud reminder that sometimes the journey is just as important as the destination. Whether it’s your first viewing or your fiftieth, you won’t want to miss this Thanksgiving tradition on the big screen.
