Open Air Cinema: THE HOLDOVERS - OmU
Snow transforms the school grounds into a picturesque winter landscape and the holidays are just around the corner - but in Alexander Payne's "The Holdovers", not everyone at the elite boarding school Barton Academy is in the Christmas spirit in December 1970. The embittered and unpopular Professor Paul Hunham is obliged to supervise all those students who are unable to travel to their families. This doesn't suit him any more than it does the clever but rebellious Angus, who actually wanted to be on a beach vacation with his mother. The frustration grows when Angus, Paul and cook Mary are the only ones left in the freezing cold school building. But as time goes by, the shared loneliness and numerous bizarre incidents lead to the unequal trio finding something of a contemplative mood just in time for the festival of love.
