This came out around the same time as "Home For The Holidays" (the Holly Hunter vehicle), but, despite the totally misleading title, is a delightful holiday romp for any of us with semi-dysfunctional families (and really, who ISN'T nowadays).
Excellent ensemble cast and an especially riveting and scenery-chewing performance by Ramona Floyd, who deserves to be in much larger productions. I've seen her do stage work before, but this is the first film I have seen her in, and she steals the show. That being said, with the 2004 holidays coming up, try to get your hands on a copy of this film. I managed to get one thru the film's website a year ago, but the site isn't up anymore, so I have no idea how you would get one, but it's well worth whatever effort it might take.
