Breezeline Winter Cinema Series
The Holdovers

With no family and nowhere to go over Christmas holiday in 1970, Paul, a cranky history teacher, remains at school to supervise students unable to journey home. After a few days, only one student holdover remains — a trouble-making 15-year-old named Angus, and head cook Mary -an African American woman whose own son was recently lost in Vietnam. These three very different shipwrecked people form an unlikely Christmas family sharing comic misadventures during two very snowy weeks in New England.

DATES AND TIMES SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

“Filmed in subdued tones of burnished browns, The Holdovers might best be described as the movie version of that favorite pair of corduroys that miraculously still fit: stylish, if a little worn in places, softened by time and made more generous by the life lived inside them.”

Washington Post

“When it’s over, the chill it leaves in your spine is destined to last nearly as long as the smile on your face.”

Observer

“There’s a sharpness to the comedy, some attitude and freshness, some wisdom. That maybe comes, in part, from the kids looking a little older than their characters are. It also comes from Payne’s emotional finesse.”
