“A warm hug of a movie and the closest thing we've had to a new holiday classic in quite some time.” (Entertainment Weekly). Two-time Academy Award winner Alexander Payne (NEBRASKA, ELECTION) directs this heartwarming dramedy following the unlikely bond between a universally disliked teacher (Paul Giaamatti – SIDEWAYS), a trouble-making student (Dominic Sessa), and the head cook on campus (Da’Vine Joy Randolph), over the course of the 1970 Christmas break, when they are all stuck together on campus during a snowstorm.
