Film critic Bill Newcott offers his entertainment picks for mature audiences
The Holdovers
(In theaters November 10) Among the most anticipated films at this year's Toronto International Film Festival was this dramatic comedy, ). Paul Giamatti, a socially inept boarding school teacher, is forced to stay on campus over Christmas to babysit the one kid whose family won't let him come home. Throw in a resentful 15-year-old (newcomer Dominic Sassa) and a no-nonsense cook (Da'Vine Joy Randolph) and you've got a latter-day — three people who form a bond through their own personal miseries.
