I love what Dave Hemingson said about writing in the silences. Those moments make you feel that things are unfolding in real time. Loved this movie so much and can't wait to see it again.

Holdovers reminded me of 'Everything Everywhere All at Once.' It made me laugh, cry, and even laugh-cry simultaneously. By the end of the movie, I was so filled with love and courage that I felt compelled to call my best American friends who supported me during holidays when I was a Chinese holdover during my PhD years. This is the power of cinema at its finest!

Paul Giamatti farting also made me laugh-cry

[@Skanda1111]

Dominic Sessa should be nominated for best supporting actor! He was amazing.

[@sarahbgln]

And it's only his first movie 🙂

[@Skanda1111]

@@sarahbgln - I know, I am amazed and look forward to seeing him in more movies. He could play the Darth Vader. That was my first thought.

[@commercialzone4141]

I agree !!

[@dariussalepetru6770]

[@Kyelus]

Could also get production design

[@emilee7021]

i could be wrong but would it not be an adapted screenplay given that Merlusse, the film he cited as his inspiration, had the same plot?

[@mlowe7245]

Thank you for discussions about talented people behind the camera.

[@armt8543]

Amazing movie !! First time I sat through a two hour movie without thinking about the time at all ❤❤❤❤

[@commercialzone4141]

I loved this film as I have no other in many years.

[@hippiecheezburger5457]

The holdovers was my favorite film of 2023 over Barbie, Oppenheimer, it was just so personally effecting to me. It was a simple story that’s been told lots of times but it moved me and I loved it and I loved the characters. It will become a classic Christmas movie in years to come.

[@benrosn8154]

Awesome film

[@abdulnaserbedil2065]

[@rebeccaduncan5970]

[@cameronbrooks3767]

Wonder how many people reading this will believe that I actually had the last speaking part in the alternate ending to The Descendants.. and if you do.. would you like to hear what happened in the original ending?🎉

[@dunkirknolan7018]

Yes

[@sailingsam3815]

Excellent film😊😅😢❤

[@emiliobello2538]

Seems like a Wes Anderson movie

[@armt8543]

It definitely had some Wes Anderson vibes , in its style but definitely different

[@GuineaPigEveryday]

Nah its way different, it feels like a christmas classic, like John Hughes film and Scent of a Woman

[@v-22]

50 mins in to this movie...bored as hell. I hope it picks up by the end of it.

[@romieanime4614]

how bored? could you elaborate?

[@Gummo22]

What’s wrong with the person interviewing them? She’s acting like her family is tied up backstage and she better do a good job or else…awkward
