The Review

The Holdovers may not initially appear to be extraordinary, but it undoubtedly ranks among director Alexander Payne’s finest works. This film is filled with humor, moments of tenderness, and serves as an outstanding example of the meaningful connections that can be formed within an unconventional family. Taking place in a strict New England boarding school in 1970, it easily passes the test as a must-see movie.

Amidst this group of misfit students is Angus, played by newcomer Dominic Sessa, whose mother has embarked on a vacation with her wealthy new husband, leaving him behind. Additionally, Mary, portrayed by Da’Vine Joy Randolph in a show...
