Dysfunctional movie families
December 12, 2008
The holidays are full of images of happy families gathered around dining room tables, enjoying turkey and dressing, catching up on old times. And, for some of us, there’s actually at least a hint of a connection between fact and fable.
Not everyone, however, looks forward to getting the whole gang together under one roof. Hollywood has immortalized its share of get-togethers gone somewhat awry.
Just in time for the ‘08 season, the New York Daily News produced a list of “Movie’s most dysfunctional families.” Here’s a look:
The Griswolds, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation
The Fockers, Meet the Fockers
The Castorinis, Moonstruck
The Tenenbaums, The Royal Tenenbaums
The Lords, The Philadelphia Story
The Finches, Running with Scissors
The Larsons, Home for the Holidays
The Stones, The Family Stone
The Sawyers, Texas Chainsaw Massacre
