The Holdovers
The Holdovers (2023, Rated R) follows a curmudgeonly instructor 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 — and with the school’s head cook, who has just lost a son in Vietnam. The New York Post says “It’s the warmest cinematic experience you’ll have all year,” which is good, because it’s pretty cold out.
