four cHristmases

What's The Story?

Brad and Kate are a perfectly happy couple with no intention of getting married. In fact, with both sets of parents divorced and remarried, they're pretty cynical about the whole "family" thing. But to their dismay, the weather conspires against their plans to leave town on Christmas. Now, instead of being family-free over the holidays, they have to visit four different households, each visit more grueling than the last. Even if their romance manages to survive the ordeal, it will certainly never be the same.

• 3Director Seth Gordon, who won fans with the wryly funny and surprisingly moving documentary The King of Kong, brings a fresh new voice to the timeless genre of romantic comedy.
