It’s Sunday! It’s no secret that I love this film. Watching Planes, Trains & Automobiles every Thanksgiving day has long been a tradition in my house. As with any movie, there’s always content that gets changed or altogether cut from the final theatrical release. However, in this mini-documentary it’s revealed that John Hughes’ original cut of the film was 3 1/2 hours long! Copies of the original script confirm that there was a remarkable amount of footage cut just to get the runtime under 2 hours. That means there’s more cut footage than what made it into the actual movie!  So where is all this lost footage? This mini-documentary by Hats Off Entertainment looks to find out.

It’s Friday! It was definitely a different Thanksgiving but we still had a good time. The food was fantastic and I still have that oh-my-gawd-why-did-I-eat-so-damn-much feeling in my gut.

We took it easy the rest of the day. Watched the classic A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and Planes, Trains & Automobiles. We also saw the National Dog Show and Macy’s Parade. Those are all things we do every Thanksgiving day, so it helped make things feel a little more normal in a year that’s been anything but normal.

Now that Thanksgiving is behind us, like it or not the race to Christmas is on. And why not? All the Christmas commercials, Christmas music, and Christmas sales all started weeks ago!
