Classic Friday : Planes, Trains & Automobiles (1987) 9/10

Starring : Steve Martin, John Candy
Director : John Hughes
Running Time : 89 mins

Steve Martin stars as Neal Page, a businessman who has to travel home to his family for Thanksgiving, but finds that a snow storm has delayed all of his possible flights. On the way he meets Del Griffith (Candy), the worlds most irritating man, who suggests they try an alternative route. From then on chaos ensues.

This is probably John Hughes last great film (possibly with the exception of Uncle Buck) and marked the high point in John Candy's short career. A must see for anyone who likes comedies how they used to be.
