His life, he carried his whole life in his trunk, the curtain rings his picture of Marie, his pajamas, his coat and sweaters, his whole life!, BTW, this movie had a dark side when it was filmed, Neal's wife thought he was cheating so everytime he called with another wild excuse she just got more upset, that's why she was crying a d why she looked at him with such love a d respect!!❤️

I adore this movie, it always makes me laugh and cry. The chemistry between Martin and Candy is the heart of the movie, and it's wonderful watching them grow closer as the movie progresses. John Candy is still missed to this day, his former cast members all sing his praises, and he was a true gentleman, by all accounts.

Sadly both Candy and Hughes left us too soon. I grew up in the 70's and 80's(teen years), those two are a major part of my best memories.

[@adamromero]

There's a lost extended version of this movie where Neil's wife thinks he's having an affair, which explains why she's so emotional when she sees him come home with Del, confirming that he was being truthful. Her reaction always seemed a little dramatic before I knew about that lol!

[@jenmurrayxo]

Ohhhhhh ok ya that would've helped her reaction not seem so out of place 👍

[@adamlopez7947]

Wow! I've seen this movie a dozen times and never knew that, 🤯 thanks 👍 that's awesome 🤗

[@neil2444]

It's true, they cut a scene that showed she was a little suspicious of him for all the lies and thought he might have been cheating on him. In a real sense, bringing Del home might have kept their marriage from going to a bad place. I always wondered what a sequel of this film might have looked like, and I imagine Del being a close family friend.

[@richardforgetcanada]

I always thought the same thing and that revelation of the subplot helped. I wish they left a little snippet of that subplot so that her reaction made more sense.

[@brendansheehy8124]

The revelation about Del’s trunk is that unfortunately he has been living out of it because he was homeless😢 I think the trunk represents his struggle to get his life back on track after the death of Marie but with Neil helping him carry it at the end it at the end he can now find a new path through their friendship.

[@jbacunn]

I don't think Del was homeless. I think he just traveled most of the time as a salesman since his wife died. He was obviously a very successful salesman and his trunk had all of his samples and inventory he traveled around with.

[@brianstraight9308]

[@sandlotkrew8778]

The trunk is Del's entire foundation-his home, his memories, and his storage. More importantly, the trunk is symbolic of Del and Neal's new association. It is filled with the crazy events of the film that brought them together, and contains the lessons learned by both characters along the way.

[@ShortyLongstrokin]

The trunk is also symbolic of relationships. When Marie was alive, Del had her to help carry their relationship. After she died, their relationship became the trunk and the things in it, and it was not possible for one person to easily carry. Along comes Neal to help carry the trunk, and a new relationship was born. The lesson is that the heavy things in life are made lighter when you have someone to help carry them with you.

[@matthewmarcinko9157]

This movie has become as quintessential to Thanksgiving as "Miracle on 34th Street" has become to Christmas: a holiday classic to be handed down through the generations.

[@rburns9730]

I would imagine since Dell was homeless the trunk held everything he owned (clothing, personal effects). I'd like to think it included a picture of Dorothy and maybe her wedding ring.

[@brianstraight9308]

We see him put a picture of this wife up on the nightstand of Braidwood Inn.

[@kevintheneck]

My fiance passed away in 2013 but this was one of our favorite movies to watch together.

[@zenarcher9633]

24:03 The reason his wife is crying is that there was a subplot that was cut from the movie. She suspected that Del Griffith was completely fictional, and that Neal was trying to use the Del character to cover up the fact he was cheating on her. Another cut subplot explains the hotel robbery, apparently Neal stiffed a pizza delivery boy of a tip, and that was who broke in and robbed them.

Steve Martin revealed on the anniversary of his death that John Candy had a whole speech that they cut out of the movie basically detailing what he went through during his wife passing to living on the streets. Steve even quoted part of it, as he still his copy of the script as a memento of working with John. Also did you know October 31st is John Candy Day in Toronto? Which means it's literally Candy Day on Halloween!

Cracking knuckles/joints relieves tension in the joints and makes them feel looser and more comfortable.

[@Alysa-Aiday]

I swear! There's this artist, Modest Mouse, that did a song in 2007: Dashboard. The lyrics are as follows: Well it would've been, could've been, worse than you would ever know. Well, the dashboard melted but we still have the radio. Tell me that song was *_Not - However coincidentally!_* - inspired by the scene in this movie where the car burned up because he didn't roll the window down far enough before throwing the cigarette out.

[@DarrylBrowne]

For those that don't have cracking/popping joints. There's no pain before, during, or after cracking/popping.There's like a tension or restricted type of feeling similar to how it feels when you reach the end of any range of movement except you can tell the tension isn't because the tendons/muscles are at their limit. If you push against that resistance enough then there's a pop/crack and then the joint doesn't experience the same tension/restriction any longer and moves more freely and so there's somewhat a feeling of tension relief. My personal favourite is in the morning when I can interlock my fingers with palms out and then bend them all back to a symphony of pops. It feels great afterwards like taking gloves off after an extended time. It's like freeing your joints up to move as much as they possibly can.

[@philmakris8507]

I think the trunk probably contained just about everything thing Del owned. In my mind maybe he had a studio apartment somewhere, like Uncle Buck and a p.o. box somewhere and just lived for the most part on the road.

[@magicbrownie1357]

Steve Martin carpet F Bombing the lady at the car rental counter is friggin' classic.

[@MrQuinn-tc3uo]

The robber was the pizza boy they stiffed in a deleted scene.

[@jenmurrayxo]

Ohhhh 👌

[@brianstraight9308]

Well, Del stiffed him with Neal's wallet. Neal was in the shower, Del couldn't find his wallet so he got Neal's but Neal didn't have small enough bills to pay for the pizza and give a reasonable-sized tip. (And pizza delivery boys of the time only carried a few dollars worth to make change.) So he got a tiny tip and came back to rob them.

[@louf1025]

John Candy is the most loveable character out there. I love watching this movie every year - my Thanksgiving tradition. Thanks for the reaction as always - it was great!! My MVP for this reaction is JEN! :)

[@Kap00rwith2os]

So the wife was crying because there was a subplot (cut from the final film) about how she thought Neal was having an affair, which is why his officemate made it home whereas he kept telling her he was stuck somewhere else. This explains why she looked at Del so intensely, as he was proof that Neal being was faithful to her.... Excellent movie for the season!

Jen if you haven't seem it I recommend John Candy in Uncle Buck 1989 Steve Martin's character Neal is clearly wealthy. In 87 He's willing to pay $75 just so the guy would give him the taxi cab That is equivalent to approx $196.75 in 2022 and that's before he even pays for the ride. The $700 stolen from his wallet is equivalent to approx $1,836.34 today

[@cole-nq1ru]

As a Chicagoan born and raised in Woodstock, IL (far NW suburb) it's impossible not to notice just how many scenes are all really local to Woodstock, most notably the house which is actually well over an hour outside Chicago by car with no traffic. I know the local area so well the film makes no sense with the order and location the scenes were shot, but they do give a very authentic Midwestern feel. Fun fact, that exact location in town (yes, the house and cross street) as well as other almost 1 for 1 locations in Woodstock are also featured prominently in the film Groundhog Day. It's a very small town of maybe 20k in population, although technically part of the Greater Chicago Metropolitan Area. So I guess Woodstock must have that generic small town feel to it, but still basically "in Chicago". If you watch this movie and Groundhog Day anywhere remotely close in time it's impossible not to notice the insanely similar shooting locations. And again, noticeably that exactly cross street and home. Wild useless fun film fact.

[@mauriceedwards9588]

I really love this film and it's two main stars Steve Martin and the late John Candy but you guessed the sad twist of the film.

Another great reaction, Jen. I love this film, full of humour and pathos too, a heart-warming film with really good acting, particularly from John Candy. A bit of trivia, when John Candy got the bus passengers to sing the theme to 'The Flintstones' it's because it was John Candy's favourite cartoon series, he was even considered for the role of Fred Flintstone in the live-action remake, the role went to John Goodman in the end.

This movie is hilarious, heart warming and wholesome. Glad you enjoyed it. There are very few Thanksgiving movies out there but this one is absolutely perfect. As far as Dell's trunk is concerned, it really didn't matter what was in it. The trunk was his home. You don't see too many people traveling the country with a large foot locker or trunk in tow. As you can imagine, he probably had very few things in it. Mostly clothes and his shower curtain rings. Another great John Candy movie is Uncle Buck.

@ 10:03 it depends on what kind of train you're riding on. If it's only doing shorter trips they probably don't have one. I went east coast to west coast and then back on trains and they had a "Beverage/Snack" cart during the longer legs of the trip which I'm willing to bet is what they called a bar cart back in '87 (I did my train journeys a couple of years ago). The shorter trip trains probably get better diesel mileage without the snack car too (and they save money on paying staff to run it)
