THE HOLDOVERS

December 14 – 24, 2023
The Holdovers
From acclaimed director Alexander Payne (Sideways), The Holdovers follows a curmudgeonly instructor (Paul Giamatti) at a New England prep school who is forced to remain on campus during Christmas break to babysit the handful of students with nowhere to go. Eventually he forms an unlikely bond with one of them — a damaged, brainy troublemaker (newcomer Dominic Sessa) — and with the school’s head cook, who has just lost a son in Vietnam (Da’Vine Joy Randolph).
Dir: Alexander Payne / 2023 / US / 133 min

“Paul Giamatti is absolute perfection as a Grinchy teacher who learns a hard lesson in empathy over a winter school break. All the actors shine in this exuberant movie gift from director Alexander Payne that has all the makings of a new holiday classic.” – Peter Travers, ABC News

“The Holdovers is a warm hug of a movie and the closest thing we’ve had to a new holiday classic in quite some time.” – Maureen Lee Lenker, Entertainment Weekly

“The time and care that Alexander Payne put into this movie pay big dividends. The Holdovers is the best and most satisfying film I’ve seen all year.” – Leonard Maltin
