Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is the classic Thanksgiving comedy directed by John Hughes, starring Steve Martin and John Candy. Control freak Neal Page (Steve Martin) is trying to get home to Chicago to spend Thanksgiving with his wife and kids. After missing a cab (stolen by Kevin Bacon,) his flight is rerouted to a distant city in Kansas because of a freak snowstorm, and his sanity begins to fray. Worse yet, he is forced to bunk up with an annoying overly-friendly salesman Del Griffith (John Candy). Together they must overcome the insanity of holiday travel, renting cars, riding trains, and finding a strange friendship along the way.
Before Megan and Karen talk about their memories of this hilarious classic, they endeavor to eat the one candy Steve refuses to try... Circus Peanuts.
Did we love the movie? Did it hold up to our memories? Were Circus Peanuts as gross as Steve claimed? Listen to find out!
