Directed by Peter Hedges • 2003 • United States
Starring Katie Holmes, Derek Luke, Sean Hayes
Rebellious daughter April Burns (Katie Holmes) has offered to host Thanksgiving dinner for her suburban clan in her grubby Lower East Side apartment. But her attempts to create an unforgettable feast go awry when she discovers that her oven doesn’t work. Now, as her family makes its way to the city, April must rely on the kindness of strangers to pull off the perfect meal—and the perfect memory. Boasting a wonderfully acerbic, scene-stealing performance from an Oscar-nominated Patricia Clarkson, this heartfelt indie gem makes for perfect holiday comfort viewing.
