About this product

Product Information

All Neal Page (Steve Martin) wants to do is make it home from a business trip in New York City and spend Thanksgiving with his family in Chicago. Instead, he finds himself rerouted from New York's La Guardia Airport to Wichita, Kansas. With no other options, Neal decides to share a room in a fleabag hotel with Del Griffith (John Candy), a shower-curtain-ring salesman and fellow stranded traveler. Although Neal finds Del to be a buffoon, he just can't seem to get away from him. To make matters worse, all their efforts to get back to Chicago fail as trains break down and rental cars catch on fire. Along the way they encounter crazy cabbies, redneck truck drivers, and oversexed bus passengers. John Hughes's (SIXTEEN CANDLES, THE BREAKFAST CLUB) first film to feature adults after his success with teen films features fine performances from Martin and Candy. Kevin Bacon, who appeared in Hughes's next film, SHE'S HAVING A BABY, makes a small but humorous appearance, as does Edie McClurg, known for her role as the high school secretary in FERRIS BUELLER'S DAY OFF.

  • Planes, Trains and Automobiles captured the total terrors of depending on any form of public transport during the wiackiest annual holday.

    Steve Martin has some great scenes, but John Candy was at his peak from the cheesy salesman grin to the abandoned puppy eyes when he's trying to sleep away from his travel mate. It gives "home for the holiday" a whole new meaning.

  • Travel impact severe, like many airline experiences today!

    The DVD was in perfect condition and played without a single problem. John Candy and Steve Martin were just as funny as I remember. The humor of the unspoken word and body language convey the feel of awkward situations better than foul language ever could. The stars sitting on Dell Griffiths trunk in the highway looking over their shoulder at the burning car is priceless.

  • Heart on Wheels

    As expected, combing Martin and Candy brings a lot of laughs, and being directed by the late John Hughes (who brought is Ferris Bueller's Day Off in 1986) gives you plenty to enjoy. We lost both John Candy and Hughes, but they live on with their movies for generations to come.

  • MY FAVORITE MOVIE

    Best movie ever made! I lost my copy...maybe I borrowed it and forgot and that person kept it...of course it is obvious WHY! I can watch this movie over and over and still laugh. Everything is perfect...the writing, the acting, the music....a gem!
