"Alexander Payne and Paul Giamatti reunite for charming comedy" - The Guardian ★★★★

OSCAR NOMINEE 2024 for Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Original Screenplay, Best Film Editing

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).
