The two-and-a-half-hour journey back home took four days and three nights, which is absurd, but this comedy of the journey from the traffic jam is quite resonant. Steve. Martin plays the role of the manager of an advertising agency working in New York. He drove back to Chicago to spend the Thanksgiving holiday with his wife and daughter. Unexpectedly, God couldn't make a trip, so he tried trains and buses and other transportation, but he also ran into darkness. During the period, he also encountered an overzealous salesman (John Candi) who insisted on traveling with him, and the contradictory personalities of the two made him very big.
