Academy Award Sundays: The Holdovers at Blackstone Library in Branford
February 2 @ 1:30 pm - 3:30 pm
Join us for a series of former Oscar-nominated films you may have missed, leading up to this year’s award show! This week we’re watching The Holdovers (2023, R).
From acclaimed director Alexander Payne, The Holdovers follows a curmudgeonly instructor (Paul Giamatti) at a New England prep school who is forced to remain on campus during Christmas break to babysit the handful of students with nowhere to go. Eventually he forms an unlikely bond with one of them—a damaged, brainy troublemaker (newcomer Dominic Sessa)—and with the school’s head cook, who has just lost a son in Vietnam (Da’Vine Joy Randolph).
