Although 2005's Golden Globe-nominated The Family Stone has its dramatic moments, it's stuffed with humorous scenes as well. The ensemble film follows uneasy businesswoman Meredith (Sarah Jessica Parker) as she joins her boyfriend Everett's (Dermot Mulroney) eccentric family for their Christmas festivities. She quickly finds that her conservative ways are at odds with the family's laid-back, free-spirited approach, and calls on her sister Julie (Claire Danes) for back-up. Blending comedy and raw emotion, the movie co-stars Rachel McAdams, Diane Keaton and Luke Wilson, and contains both awkward and endearing holiday elements all viewers can connect with.
