I grew up on this movie. It was on HBO all the time when I was a kid. Me & my older brother loved it! Still do, tbh. The motel scene when he says "I think this makes us even." was such a well acted scene, especially Ed O'Neill and the truck driver who seemed mortified
Totally agree! I still try and watch this on or near Thanksgiving every year. You’re right the motel scene is so well done for all the little things you pick up in the acting. I never understood some of the fine intricacies of things in this movie when I was young like the look Ed O’Neill has on his face when he realizes these people that very easily could have drove them the rest of the way home just dropped them at a homeless shelter.
Classic unknown movie full of life lessons ! I didn’t know it was a Hughes film ! Very odd how this movie wasn’t huge? Good for u for bringing attention to this ! It really was cast perfectly ! Great channel by the way !
Flaws aside, I love Dutch. For me it's a tradition to watch Planes, Trains And Automobiles and then Dutch on Thanks Giving and Trading Places, Uncle Buck (though not technically a holiday movie) A Christmas Story and a few others on my b-day which is December 25th. Planes, Trains And Automobiles hotel scene was filmed about five miles away from my home which you can see I-55 in the background.
This is a super hard one to find a physical copy of, I still have my old VHS copy but Ive never seen the DVD in a store either! I had to use Qbit and rip it from Pirate Bay to get a copy on the laptop to use

Well now I want to watch it! Came from the Bloodsport videos and I can see some real talent here. Looking forward to the Van Damme ranking video.
I watched it last year 2023. A great movie

Awesome! I'm from IL as well just a few hours south of there! Its neat all of those filming locations are within a day trip to see
I haven’t seen this movie in years and can’t find it anywhere, I even check the pre owned dvd store whenever I find one.

John Hughes was definitely a victim of his success in the teen comedy genre. But I love his entire catalogue.
