Alamo Website description:  "Those aren't PILLOWS!!!" Hollywood has provided us with no shortage of classic Christmas films, but there is only ONE great Thanksgiving epic, and it is HERE. No fibbin'...this is the flat-out funniest holiday feature ever made, and deserves to stand tall in the ranks of Perfect Movies! John Candy gives his best-ever performance as shower curtain ring salesman Del Griffith, a carefree loser who takes uptight businessman Neal Page (Steve Martin) on the misadventure-ride of a lifetime. Thrill to flaming cars, maniacal hijinks, emotional blowouts and a faceful of really big, really dirty underwear. So join us at The Ritz and spend the holiday with John Hughes, John Candy and Steve Martin now that none of them are still with us. Don't believe me? Watch PINK PANTHER 2.
