Join Claudia Larson (Holly Hunter) and family for a Thanksgiving to remember in this classy comedy, directed by Jodie Foster. The last thing Claudia feels like doing right now is going home to her parents - she's just been fired from her job, she has a terrible cold and her teenage daughter has just told her that she intends to have her first sexual experience while Claudia is away! Arriving at her parents' home, Claudia discovers that some things never change: her mother (Anne Bancroft) nags her constantly about not wasting her life and her father (Charles Durning) is a hen-pecked oaf. When her gay brother Tommy (Robert Downey Jr) arrives, Claudia expects things to liven up a little - and she's not wrong!, A single woman, who is newly unemployed, dreads the annual Thanksgiving visit with her loving, but overbearing family.
