Navigating Chaos: A Comedic Analysis of John Candy's Performance

This is a re-airing from November 24, 2021. The definitive Thanksgiving movie, right?? The travel, the trouble, the good the bad, and laughably maddening scenarios that can only come from the mind of John Hughes. With two comedic giants at the forefront, does this buddy-travel movie hold up and speak through generational lapses? What’s Neal’s wife’s problem? What’s in Del’s trunk?? How many f**ks does it take to f**k yourself? All this and more while we break down Planes, Trains, and automobiles.
