As a die-hard fan of 'Planes, Trains, and Automobiles,' this book was an absolute gem to add to my collection. The trivia and behind-the-scenes details made me appreciate the movie even more. I even took it on my trip to Chicago—it felt like the perfect companion!
What surprised me most was how much I learned about John Candy and the film's production. The book is packed with fun facts, like how Edie McClurg improvised her famous 'Marie, you're such a stitch' line. It’s these little nuggets that make it a joy to flip through.
I gifted a copy to my friend Dave, who used to replay the movie on cable back in '88. He loved it just as much as I did. It’s the kind of book that sparks nostalgia and great conversations—perfect for fans and newbies alike.
And let’s talk about the inside jokes! Leaving it on my desk during the holidays had me grinning, imagining my in-laws spotting it and recalling the film’s hilarious moments. This book isn’t just a read; it’s an experience.
