- A new film by Alexander Payne, director of SIDEWAYS and THE DESCENDANTS. Paul Giamatti stars in THE HOLDOVERS, in select theaters October 27, everywhere November 10.
From acclaimed director Alexander Payne, THE HOLDOVERS follows a curmudgeonly instructor (Paul Giamatti) at a New England prep school who is forced to remain on campus during Christmas break to babysit the handful of students with nowhere to go. Eventually he forms an unlikely bond with one of them -- a damaged, brainy troublemaker (newcomer Dominic Sessa) -- and with the school’s head cook, who has just lost a son in Vietnam (Da’Vine Joy Randolph).

Saw this trailer before Oppenheimer, I was blown away that this trailer actually managed to capture the actual look of an old film that so many try and fail to capture because they look too polished. Seems to be a smart, heartwarming film! Almost pulled out of time! Can't wait to see it!
Yeah. The effect isn't really quite captured here, but the trailer in the theater looked and sounded like an older movie. It was pretty cool.
@@theknack101 Definitely agree with that, it looked PERFECT in the theater. I'm guessing with digital transportation we'll really never get that look unless we see it in the theaters, which I totally plan to do.
@@streetrat48I wouldn’t doubt this was shot digitally but transferred to film to get the look. That’s how marvels werewolf by night was done
Same here, I was confused for a second but loved it
The voice-over was the ticket. I hadn't heard that since the 90's and I was there.
I love how this was obviously shot on film and feels like a late 80s early 90s dramedy. This is how you organically involve aesthetics in your art without making the point of the art the aesthetics themselves
1970's through and through. Seems like a cross between "The Paper Chase" and "Animal House".

@@TheDawsonscreekfan thank for your service
@@TheDawsonscreekfanWhat is the point of this comment
The actor here Dominic Sessa was one of my brothers childhood best friends and this is his first breakout work and I’m so shocked and excited to see him in this
IKR Dominic Sessa and I were neighbors, His mother used come over with him and they always gave us freshly baked oatmeal cookies! Oh those were the days!
Oh boy he is great!!!
he really putting south jersey on the map!!! so proud of him :3
his performance was great. The casting of this movie....unbelievable
This trailer feels so much like what trailers felt like in the late 90s or early 2000s... movie trailer voice, the editing between the music and the voices/lines and the shots, that very particular tempo between those three things... It struck me how I haven't seen a trailer like this in very a long time. It's super well made, just on that basis.
And a movie directed by the director of The Descendants, and with Paul Giamatti playing a History or Classics professor... I'm in!!
More like 80's
@@mightybmx2900 More like the 70s!
I was waiting for the "Rated R for..."
Showing the entire plot?
@@alexandermaverick Maybe the plot isn't the the only good thing about it, hmm
Theres been a lot of throwback films recently but this has to be the most authentic emulation I've seen yet. Even the sound, which I don't really know how they did at all, its so heartwarming to see. I'm real excited to see this
Yeah, I had the same questions about the sound.
Honestly? They probably just used old equipment. The best way to sound authentic is just to literally USE authentic gear, right? :D
@@bartwilson2513I think it’s because they recorded in mono and not stereo
Rosebud
@@bartwilson2513what josh Lopez said! They recorded in mono
This movie feels like it’s from a bygone era. It needs to be seen by everyone. It feels so authentic to the time period it takes place in and the warmth that this story brings is a feeling I haven’t had watching a new film in a long time. I’m so glad movies like this are still being made
I can’t believe Dominic sessa got discovered for this movie. He’s got such organic and natural acting
True! He did so well!
Saw this today in the theater and loved it. One of the best movie experiences I’ve had in a while.
Same!
Same here! I loved it!
Same, THE ACTING IS AMAZING
Same
Sad movie😢
This movie was absolutely brilliant. Truly. Just great humor and a nice balance of human kindness that and the bond that unlikely humans can make. Highly recommend.
💯💯💯
I have to say, this is one of Paul Giamatti's greatest performances of his entire career. I just watched it and felt transported back in time!
First off I have to say this is one of Paul Giamatti’s greatest performances in his entire career. And the rest of the cast is perfection as well. Everyone involved in this movie is Oscar Worthy. The Holdovers really reminded me of the film style and comedy/drama tone of classic 1970’s era classic movies from the great Hal Ashby, such as The Landlord, Harold And Maude, The Last Detail and Being There. Also it reminded me of classic 70’s movies from Bob Rafelson like Five Easy Pieces and The King Of Marvin Gardens. You could make a case that this movie is right up there with these great classics from that era. It feels like an all time great lost gem directly from the 70’s
You mustve missed him in the movie Private Parts. I've been a fan every since!
@@bbaileystl Pig Vomit lives on!!!
Agree. Absolutely loved Da'vine Joy Randolph in this as the cafeteria cook. Such a beautiful, understated performance. She deserves a big career.
Yes! I just watched the film tonight, and commented to my mom and husband that it reminded me so much of "Harold and Maude" ... the cinematography, score, and pacing, especially. What a wonderful film.
@@hoyageorge Yes I definitely agree with you. I’m glad you also enjoyed this brilliant film. I really enjoyed this film so much and all the work that the cast and crew put into it. I believe it will receive many Oscar nominations and even a few wins as well. You can make a case, The Holdovers is worthy of ranking right up there with many of these all time great 70’s era classic masterpieces
I feel like Da'Vine Joy Randolph is on the Octavia Spencer career trajectory where she's doing these supporting roles in so many different genres and absolutely KILLING it and then she's gonna get that one breakout part that truly lifts her into A-list and I am absolutely here for all of it.
you see a lot for the (around) 10 seconds she's in the trailer.
She needs to get a stage name. hers is too hard to say with a straight face.
She's a Broadway actress and has won a tony for best performance for an actress in a musical.
@@JustMamba and still - i've never, ever heard of her........but, thanks for the info.
@@beavis4play tbh me either. I just googled her lol
The Breakfast Club meets Dead Poets Society. I'm game.
....meets Scent of a Woman.
meets Holden Caulfield
Damn ❤
EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING WHILE WATCHING THIS
...meets Class meets Oxford Blues meets Dutch meets The Ref meets Rushmore meets...
Just saw it in theatres! This is an absolutely fantastic period piece; very accurate to 1970. It is very bittersweet, but charming. Highly recommend!☆☆☆☆☆
That is a very '70s style old school trailer with the narration, the freeze frame, and let me tell you I am HERE FOR IT
I've seen this heartwarming film three times now. I am facing xmas alone with myocarditis prevending me from flying home to be with my family. Might sound silly, but this film is helping me get through it. Merry Christmas all, especially those dealing with loneliness. Give this film a try, you wont regret it!
I saw it yesterday and loved it. Hope you're doing okay now.
Wish you all the best. Much love ❤
Myocarditis you say? I'm so sorry to hear that. Lay off the covid jabs. You don't need boosters. I hate people self inflicting harm upon themselves due to government and news propaganda. No more mRNA for you sir.
Get well soon. Godbless you
Never realise how much i missed these old film vibes
I've been missing them for a long time
This legit looks like a 70's movie.
Alexander Payne always makes the characters grow by already throwing them in a complicated life situation
Alexander Payne is a hack
The more scripts bend the truth --the worst the movies become. FYI In the 70's there was no such word as privileged and no one would call white kids little privileged assholes and base a character around it--this is why no one goes to the movies anymore -UTTER WOKE GARBAGE
I'm beyond excited for 'The Holdovers'! The fact that they filmed at Fairhaven High School, my old stomping grounds, just adds an extra layer of anticipation. Seeing the Knipe Auditorium on the big screen, where I used to hang out and goof off between classes, is going to be a surreal experience. It's not every day you get to see a place so familiar and full of personal memories featured in a movie. Can't wait to see it!
Goofed a lot in there myself.
That actually sounds really cool. Seeing something that was part of your life now on big screen. How long has it been since you graduated? I'm 42 and recently for whatever reason my memories of high school are coming back to me. World has changed so much.
A lot of this was filings at my HS, St. Marks in Massachusetts
Well the chapel in the trailer intro is NMH which I know from having been a faculty brat and an alumnus. On Fresh Air, Paul Giamatti said the movie was filmed at Deerfield, 30 minutes from NMH, but it sounds like footage was shot all over the place.
L on or if kk lol ml mo my bookl full lob upcoming m kl

I love how this movie feels like an 80’s or 90’s movie that got locked in a vault for 30 or 40 years and is just now being released. Looks great! Looks unique and different. Can’t wait!
Perfect description. I'm going to see it tomorrow after T-day dinner. I love going alone to the movies on Thanksgiving.
How could a 90's film get locked in a vault for 40 years?
I paid $6 and went to a matinee showing of this in Portland Oregon at the 100-year-old Laurelhurst Theater. I was the only person in the audience under 60. It was a good film. I mostly went for Paul Giamatti and remembering him in Sideways 20 years ago. Love all the wool and corduroy. Also a nice appearance of a 1950's Gem G-Bar single edge safety razor in the opening shot and a Everready Commander flashlight.
I haven’t been excited for an indie film in a long time. This looks fantastic.
Indie? It's Alexander f***** Payne... He's the good side of mainstream... Up there with the Coens, Tarantino, Nolan...
@@sca8217 I mean it colloquially, the same way Arcade Fire or The National are considered indie despite selling out arenas and being backed by big companies. More of a thematic definition than a financial one.
@@sca8217 Indie is defined not just by popularity but by content as well. Definitionally, his work is indie by tone and production means but it’s also distributed by Focus who do foreign and independent movies specifically. But mostly I just want to know if Paul’s eye has always done that or if it’s a gimmick for this movie specifically.
Paul Giamatti has a knack for pushing his eyeballs out of his head. Does a lot of that in American Splendor...
@@sca8217 just one of his many glorious talents. I heard he benches 325lb.
This is the year for Paul Giamatti's Oscar that he truly deserved for Sideways.
Umm dude no one knows if he even will be nominated. There's a lot of VERY STRONG best actor lead performances this year and right now Cillian Murphy in Oppenheimer is the 1 to beat! I don't see Paul in this film winning over Cillian, Leo in Killers of the flower moon, Joaquin in Napoleon, Michael Fassbender in the Killer, etc
@@nikitamohan3390 It was a half joke anyway I just wish he got it for Sideways. But yo! I just watched Oppenheimer last night and my god that was a great performance!!!
@@filmexpressreviews I will be watching Oppenheimer in a few hours in IMAX. Umm where's the joke here? I do hope Paul is at least nominated for this movie, because according to some test screen reactions, this is a very good movie, and he deserves the recognition on a big platform like the Oscars but there's a lot of fierce competition from "bigger films" than the Holdovers for Paul to win this time unfortunately. But hopefully this is not his last Oscar nomination and he will get at least 2 or 3 more nominations in is career.
@@nikitamohan3390 I hope leo gets it
@@amirleo2051 ONLY if Leo TRULY deserves it. Giving out Oscars out of pity and charity the way Jamie Lee Lurtis unjustly got it last year for Best Supporting Actress (despite being the LEAST deserving in her category) is destroying the reputation of these award shows. It's only fun and exciting when the competition is REAL and people are awarded ideally based on, at least MOSTLY ON MERIT and not any other prejudice or rubbish politics!
I was a background actor in this film. I cannot wait to see the entire film! Just the scenes I was involved in were hilarious! I forsee an Oscar for this film! (not for me LOL)
You know what there should be an award for extras lol
We need to get you an Oscar
NO Oscar for this film. It was a bomb, and Chang Film Critic with the LA Times wrote a scathing review on it today. --- Focus paid Alexander Payne $30 million for it, and it made them 200,000. HUGE financial flop for Focus.
@@FLeigh12so you equate financial success to how good a movie is? That's crazy bro
It has a 96% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, so at the moment the review you mention is an outlier.
Seriously one of the best movies I've seen in a long, long time. Unfortunately, I was the only one in the theater. I mean, it was a Monday night at 10pm, but still... This is going to be a Holiday classic, no question.
Is it more of a Thanksgiving or a Christmas film?
@@parissinclair6513 You're right. I edited my comment. 😄
Not sure where you saw it but the theatre was full when I saw it on THursday night.
@@Broadwaybuff-pi1qg That's excellent news! I'm in the NYC suburbs.
I will be alone watching tonight i believe 😂
I saw the trailer for this movie for the first time at a theater and I genuinely couldn’t tell for a bit if this was a new movie or a re-release of a movie from 30-40 years ago. This trailer definitely has me hooked.
This really looks good!! Like it would have been made 30 years ago
Yeah your right. Even the trailer feels like it was cut in 90s lol
Looks like crap.
Definitely! Can’t watch to watch this! After a decade and plus of awful crap it seems like mid movies are becoming more popular again.
@@BlumpMusicI don't know what movies were you watching
The movie depicts the early 1970s, but I get what you’re talking about. I know you’re asking how do I know that it’s depicting the early’70s…because I am one of the ladies in the kitchen scene, and Mr. Payne is awesome to work for.
This film does not disappoint. One of Payne's best!
Did it premiered?
If this movie doesn't get an Oscar, I won't ever look at the Oscars again. Paul Giamatti and the entire cast are beyond brilliant in this movie, It is a masterpiece and I really hope they stop rewarding stories about war, bombs, and pain and celebrate the brilliance of powerful stories like The Holdovers. And the filming technique is superb!
Just got one for the supporting actress.. Don't ever look from now...IM WATCHING YOU
Hopefully this movie does well, so that way we can get more movie trailers like this.
Da’Vine Joy Randolph better come thru!!! She is fantastic in every role
She was amazing. Should get best supporting actor for sure...
I loved her since I saw her in Dolemite - she was robbed of a nomination. They better at least nominate her - this is a beautiful understated performance. I'm a definitely a fan.@@AaronClow
Oh, she does. She should nab an Oscar nomination for this role.
What a great movie…I wonder why I watched it only now! I haven’t enjoyed a movie this much for a long long time. The performance of the actors, every single one of them just nailed it. How every detail is so cinematographic. It felt like I was watching someone’s real life from my window, occasionally noticing the weather change. Masterpiece.
Can’t go wrong with Payne and Giamatti❤️
"I find the world a bitter and complicated place and it seems to feel the same way about me. I think you and I have this in common."
Just give Giamatti the Oscar already
Cillian Murphy: yeah about that
I'm thinking Bradley Cooper and Colman Domingo have a better shot at the Oscar, but I wouldn't be sad if Giamatti got it--he soars in this.
@@fajarputras3300 You can add Bradley Cooper and Colman Domingo to the list of frontrunners who probably currently have the edge over Murphy and Giamatti now.
It’s gonna be tough to be Cillian Murphy. I mean, they both will get nominated, but the gap for how obvious the winning choice is going to be is pretty obvious. But at least Da’Vine Joy Randolph has great odds for winning best supporting actress for her role in the movie.
Paul Giamatti better get the Oscar for this. Dominic Sessa and Da’Vine Joy Randolph too! Paul Giamatti exceeded his reach! Give him the golden ring.
A trailer which reinstates my belief in Mr. Payne. So well made and it made me smile and also sad. Eagerly waiting!
Watched this and I cried, what a simple Masterpiece , Brilliantly acted out by the main characters. A huge must watch.
Dominic Sessa reminds me of young Tom Hanks… The look, the acting.. everything
This looks like a fresh retro movie, unlike most retro movies it feels like it was written by someone who what around at those times
"Sir, I don't understand"
"That's glaringly apparent!"
"I can't fail this class!"
"Oh, don't sell yourself short, Mr. Kountze, I truly believe that you can."
So you prefer that corny TV sitcom dialogue?
@@michael69040 Oscar nominated for best original screenplay.
@@michael69040it's not corny it's clever.
@@josephsleight2634
Clever and comedic! Loved these lines
Giamatti is exceptional will definitely see this. He deserves so much more
Stunned to see a trailer that doesn't have the patented Netflix drum banging the drama home to emphasise how you were about to witness the biggest thing ever. Even the new Pixar trailer had it, because Disney presumably told the makers that every film now needs one. I was expecting the only escape I'd ever get from this was to just watch overseas movies like the new Miyazaki, but Payne proves a trailer can be done without it and the Universe doesn't immediately self destruct afterwards, go figure.
Great movie. Such a relief to have a quality movie driven by depth of character, a compelling story, heartfelt acting, and based in modest reality. We need more movies like this, and less insulting CGI drivel.
I am absolutely living for this 70s style film. I’m SO excited to see this
Hope you got to see it. It's amazing. And it's a perfect '70s-style film. Very "Harold and Maude" in the way it's filmed, paced, and scored.
I like the part when Paul is sitting down with the kids having dinner. He tells the kids, “you have no idea how good you have it!”. My siblings and I could be difficult growing up. My father would say the same thing, and we hated hearing it. 30 years later, I am glad my father said that.
This is a great movie anyone that has experienced loss knows the feelings the movie shows during the holidays. Very relatable and was entertaining every second.
I never saw the trailer. I just saw the movie poster one day while passing an AMC, decided to see it and was blown away by the acting, script-writing, and excellent cinematography!
I don't know if this is an "Oscar-bait film", but its defiantly gonna win some awards come January!!
💯💯💯
The characters feel like people! I'll gladly watch this with my friends, and then watch it again. Bravo Focus Features for this breath of fresh air
Worst movie from teh woke era of screenplays
The kids' dialogue never once felt anything but 100% authentic, which is extremely rare.
it was the priledged little asshole lines and racism against the students over and over which was woke CRAP @@derkeheath5172
Saw this film in the cinema this evening. Really moved by it, cried a lot and laughed a lot. Made me remember that a film doesn't have to be sensational to be good.
Looks like Paul Giamatti will finally get his long awaited Best Actor nomination!
I hope so. Very versatile and because he can go right into character whether lead or supporting role
I think he got robbed this year...
This film must win the oscar for best picture. Brilliant movie.
This looks like an extremely cozy movie! I’ll definitely check it out!!
I saw this trailer when I saw Oppenheimer a few days ago, but I have to say I’m really impressed with the old-school aesthetics to make it look like a movie trailer from the 70s. I always love it when Movie’s take the extra step to truly emulate the era their setting. Reminds me of the artist which resembled a silent picture of the 20s.
Kind of like how Argo was filmed at a slightly reduced speed in order to mimic the 1970s cameras.
Haha don’t mind me but I’m here to brag it was filmed on campus at my school!!
They even threw in a MCMLXXI copyright date. (1971)
I'm just back from the theater.
This is a brilliant and touching movie.
I strongly recommend it.
What a sweet movie, I love 70’s movies and they did a great job capturing that time! 💕
Us preppies from that era experienced this show on a smiling, personal level. Great to visit my campus(es) again, and yes, those snowy campus sidewalk scenes were credibly cold! Great film. ❤
Just saw this and honestly, I want to see it again tomorrow. So well done, lots of heart, every single performance is riveting and Alexander Payne is a genius.
Agree!!!
No way --so you like scripts where the lead actress gets to call all kids at the school assholes--hummm yeah--this is garbage that was sitting on the shelf at Miramax when Harvey got sent away and is a terrible woke ass BS
@@stewartday4543 Settle down there Stew
Paul Giamatti is a great and entertaining actor, glad to see Payne return too.
I saw this today. Just a wonderful movie.
Agree!!!
Was absolutely delighted by it.
Watched it today at the cinemas.
Such an uplifting, witty and claver film.
Paul Giamatti is a hell of an actor, hope for him that he will surprise everybody and will win the Oscar tomorrow night for best actor🤞🏾
This was filmed at my high school. I ate meals for four years at the dining hall in the thumbnail. I have indeed, spent a holdover long weekend on that same campus, but it was by choice, because I wanted to hang out with my friends and goof off lol
Saw this at a festival and can’t wait until it’s out in theaters everywhere, such a pure story of boyhood and loneliness. It is dead poets society and so much more!!!
Thanks for the heads up!
winner of two film fests?? seriously bad movie start to finish
This movie may not be super popular right now, but I'm willing to bet it'll catch on as a Christmas classic.
It's soooo good.
Most of the Christmas classics only become popular with time. I remember watching "A Christmas Story" on opening week in an almost entirely empty theater, and it was gone the next week.
The holdovers is now taking number 1 position of all christmas movies, before Home Alone 1.
Beautifully shot film. Hard to believe it was made in 2023. It had the perfect 80's 90's aesthetic. Even this trailer is straight from the 90's.
from the first act i was hooked and invested
the second act i was comforted and as happy as i could have been
the third act i was absolutely gut punched and heartbroken. all together one of the best and most original films of the year, so cool to be here at the beginning of Dominic Sessas career. amazing film
Watched tbis movie last night, without any expectations. I was so amazed by everything, the humor, the feel of New England around Christmas time but more importantly a heart warming story of friendship.
An amazing film, great acting, great script, great composition, meticulous period piece and contextualized characters. My new fav Christmas movie
I agree, it was beautiful. I really enjoyed it as well. Light and deep at the same time. I will try to see it again...
Please go see this, these are the types of movies I wish they made more of.
I appreciate the deep voice narration like the 90s movies.
I loved the movie. Paul should have won best actor.
Brilliant movie. Brilliant script, casting, directing. I laughed. I cried. It was for me the most satisfaying movie of 2023!
Just watched it. It's really, really heartwarming, good. Highly recommended for a X-mas movie!
Same, such a perfect movie
And such a fun movie
One of the best movies I've seen in years.
BS woke Shit
This is one of my favorite movies in a really long time. So heartwarming & funny, amazing actors. Will rewatch every year
"Crying, crying never did nobody no good no how" Fantastic drama played flawlessly by the master Paul Giamatti. Loved the sound track.
Oh what a breath of fresh air this trailer was!
Can't wait to watch it!
Just finished watching this film, it will be looked at as a classic years from now. Absolutely amazing.
It’s like the breakfast club epic and classic combined
This film is a homage to cinema, for that reason, I'm in!
The song is Glad by Traffic in case anyone is wondering. It used to play in auditoriums and on trailers all the time. Excellent choice here.
Thank you so much, every time an ad for this movie comes on, I try to recall this. I was certain it was Traffic, but the only Traffic album I really know is Low Spark, and it wasn't there, and I wasn't about to go through the whole discography. So this time, I finally decided to go to this upload and look through the comments. YOU SAVED ME MY DUDE.
Just saw the movie here in Rome. I think it's a masterpiece of our times.
I see Alexander Payne and Paul Giamatti, I buy a ticket.
I honestly went into this thinking it was going to largely be a comedy, but what I found was one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time.
Saw this trailer before Oppenheimer earlier today. Knew nothing about this movie. But I can’t wait to see it.
Same, saw it before Oppenheimer and put it in my notes on my phone :)
What's the between school and life? In school, we're given a lesson, and then a test. And in life, we're given a test, that teaches us a lesson.
I loved this film. The main actors - Paul Giamatti, Dominic Sessa, Da'Vine Joy Randolph - and all of the supporting actors were fantastic. Highly recommend seeing this on whatever platform you can.
Just finished watching this beautiful film❤. Well deserved praise all around. I predict this will be a yearly watch from now on. So happy great films with real acting and no need for CGI or over- compensating physical “transformations/glow-ups” can still be made. Character development and intelligent script, as it used to be. And, cannot wait to see more of the talented cast, specially the sharp Ms. Randolph, post Academy Award, and the newcomer Mr. Sessa! This film was a true joy to see 😊.
Alexander Payne is a talent. Nice to see Giamatti working with him again. This looks good.
I love Payne
Seen it twice , very heartfelt down to earth vibe, imo.
This trailer makes me feel like I've stepped into a time machine. I like it here.
Paul Giamatti is a movie star. Forget all the actors with movie star looks but no real substance. This guy is the real deal.
Honestly going down as one of my favorite movies of all time. Well done
This is exactly the kind of trailer I WANT TO SEE. I love the 70s trailer look, I'm definitely watching it.
the freeze frame at the end make me choke with laughters😂
Paul Giamatti’s acting is on another level. I never miss a movie with him in it.
Just by the style of music and the way it’s shot you can tell it’s gonna be one of the greats where you can laugh and cry all in one👏🏼I’m excited
I am going to be honest, this movie was drawing me in with Paul Giamatti but it sold me just from Badfinger's "No Matter What" alone.
Saw this trailer whilst waiting to watch Oppenheimer at the cinema today and I instantly had to search it up. It has a beautiful nostalgic feeling attached to it, I’m so down to watch this film! (I guess I’m so fond of the trailer because it reminds me of Dead Poets Society in a way)
Wonderful story and superb acting. The close up scene near the end when Angus talks about his father is so moving and real; Dominic Sessa nailed it, absolutely nailed it. As did Paul Giamatti when he had to make a choice. Amazing and so touching.
Something that modern films trying to replicate older films rarely get right is the audio quality. This has got it perfect!
A beautifully crafted film, incredible writing. Paul Giammati is amazing
