More from Movies on Amazon

This Paul Newman film stars the actor as Donald Sullivan, nicknamed Sully, who doesn’t enjoy doing any of the responsibilities that come with being an adult. He spends most of his time working or nursing a beer at his local bar.

He and his son Peter (Dylan Walsh) are estranged. But one day, Peter shows up with his own son in tow. Suddenly, for the first time, Sully finds himself saddled with a grandchild and a son he barely knows. He has to decide whether he’s willing to put in the effort to become a better man.

9. Home for the Holidays (1995)

  • Directed by: Jodie Foster
  • Starring: Holly Hunter, Robert Downey Jr., Anne Bancroft, Dylan McDermott, Geraldine Chaplin, Steve Guttenberg, Claire Danes, Cynthia Stevenson, and Charles Durning

Holly Hunter stars as a struggling single mother who must contend with her moody teenage daughter after she vows to skip Thanksgiving. Instead of battling it out with her, Claudia instead decides to brave her family dinner all alone.

While there, she has to deal with her intrusive parents, and her arrogant sister with her equally obnoxious husband. It’s the height of family dysfunction which might make you feel right at home if your own family is similar. Plus, it adds a dash of romance when Leo Fish (McDermott) enters the picture.
