About this product

Product Information

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.

  • a cruel, angry film trying to be a comedy

    This film is a problem for me the acting was good as was the story line, but the continued friction between the two lead characters left a bad taste for me. It was not a film I would be likely to see again. The best part for me was at the start with the chase for the taxi and John Candy taking off in it.

  • Classic nostalgia.

    A classic film and highly recommended to anyone (on the moon?!) who hasn’t seen it. Starring Steve Martin at his old school funny best,and of course the late great John candy. 5 stars.
