Home for the Holidays
On the Season 3 finale of Talking Movies with My Mom, we kick-start the holidays with two of our favorite family-centric movies – "Hannah and Her Sisters" and "National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation." We chew over how John Hughes instinctively blends wacky and sentimental without being cheesy, how Duck Soup can be the cure for an existential crisis, and how Julia Louis-Dreyfus really is the secret ingredient to a fulfilling film.
