    This is about a wild, dysfunctional family, parts of which most of us can all relate. Great characters and a perfect cast. A genius cast, in fact. This movie requires a sense of humor and it helps if your family is screwed up (too). One of my favorite movies of all time. A no-miss around the holidays. If they allowed a higher score than 10, this would get it. Run—don’t walk—to go out and get this on DVD.… Expand

    Foster has whipped the actors into the sort of comic frenzy usually reserved for farce, and the ready-for-anything energy serves the material well.

    Ms. Foster and the screenwriter, W. D. Richter, have given this film some peculiar mood swings, so that it starts out zanily and winds down to a wistful note.

    The result is a movie that feels both fussed-over and meaninglessly cruel.
