Synopsis: Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987)

All Neal Page (Steve Martin) wants to do is make it home from a business trip in New York City and spend Thanksgiving with his family in Chicago. Instead, he finds himself rerouted from New York's La Guardia Airport to Wichita, Kansas. With no other options, Neal decides to share a room in a fleabag hotel with Del Griffith (John Candy), a shower-curtain-ring salesman...
All Neal Page (Steve Martin) wants to do is make it home from a business trip in New York City and spend Thanksgiving with his family in Chicago. Instead, he finds himself rerouted from New York's La Guardia Airport to Wichita, Kansas. With no other options, Neal decides to share a room in a fleabag hotel with Del Griffith (John Candy), a shower-curtain-ring salesman and fellow stranded traveler. Although Neal finds Del to be a buffoon, he just can't seem to get away from him. To make matters worse, all their efforts to get back to Chicago fail as trains break down and rental cars catch on fire. Along the way they encounter crazy cabbies, redneck truck drivers, and oversexed bus passengers. John Hughes's (SIXTEEN CANDLES, THE BREAKFAST CLUB) first film to feature adults after his success with teen films features fine performances from Martin and Candy. Kevin Bacon, who appeared in Hughes's next film, SHE'S HAVING A BABY, makes a small but humorous appearance, as does Edie McClurg, known for her role as the high school secretary in FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF.

    The Best Thanksgiving Movie Ever

    By Freda B  Nov 17, 2006

    Pros: Comedic talents unsurpassed

    Cons: NONE!!!!

    I tried to do this for my first review and couldn't find it at the time, to be able to review. Today, as Thanksgiving approaches, I see it here! What a blast to find it!! This movie has the best comedic team I have ever seen, John Candy and Stev...e Martin together. It is a terrible shame that John Candy isn't around, to further share that magic that he so well displayed with Steve Martin. However, he left us with a treasure in this movie! The story revolves around getting home for Thanksgiving and the two unlikely traveling mates that use Planes, Trains, & Automobiles to make it there. It is so hilarious, I never get tired of laughing about it. The bathroom scene, the bed scene, and the driving scene are my favorites, but the movie is packed full of so many moments, it's hard to choose. And the ending, so bittersweet! If you haven't watched it, buy or rent a copy today!!! Read more Less
