Planes, Trains and Automobiles came out 35 years ago this week, indelibly stamping its place in the canon not only as a classic Thanksgiving movie, but as a forever-favorite comedy as well. Go inside the making of the movie, from John Hughes writing the script at lightning speed to the nearly four-hour first cut of the film, with Vanity Fair’s oral history of the movie plus a newly recovered deleted scene from the film. Give it a read before you dive into your turkey coma and annual viewing this year.
Elsewhere in HWD, Fleishman Is in Trouble, a show about divorce, was largely directed by…married couples? It wasn’t a mistake. VF’s David Canfield chats with the two husband and wife director teams who brought Taffy Brodesser-Akner’s adaptation to life. The Independent Spirit Awards nominationshave been announced, and Tár, Women Talking, and Everything Everywhere All at Once lead the honorees. The second season of The White Lotus confronts a pandemic: gender expectations and toxic masculinity. Anya Taylor-Joyand Nicholas Hoult join The Menu director Mark Mylod to break down a tense dining scene in the new movie. All this and more, today on HWD!
