The American version of "People on the Road", although the two stories are roughly similar, and they are both funny and warm, the directors are very good at making jokes from the details of life, but the two are very funny. They have East and West. The imprint of different social cultures.
A scene that impressed me deeply was that when the unmanageable companion drove Martin on the highway in a rented car, he turned on the music, listened to the song, played the piano and played the horn and closed his eyes. Really hilarious, this is a very proud person.
The music in the film is very characteristic of the 80s, very nice and kind.
The director John Hughes is actually the screenwriter of Home Alone. He is really talented in comedy.

Planes, Trains & Automobiles quotes

  • Neal: You're no saint. You got a free cab, you got a free room, and someone who'll listen to your boring stories. I mean, didn't you notice on the plane when you started talking, eventually I started reading the vomit bag? Didn't that give you some sort of clue, like, hey, maybe this guy's not enjoying it? You know, everything is not an anecdote. You have to discriminate. You choose things that are funny or mildly amusing or interesting. You're a miracle! Your stories have none of that. They're not even amusing *accidentally*! "Honey, I'd like you to meet Del Griffith, he's got some amusing anecodotes for you. Oh, and here's a gun so you can blow your brains out. You'll thank me for it." I could tolerate any insurance seminar. For days, I could sit there and listen to them go on and on with a big smile on my face. They'd say, "How can you stand it?" I'd say, "'Cause I've been with Del Griffith. I can take anything." You know what they'd say? They'd say, "I know what you mean. The shower curtain ring guy. Whoa." It's like going on a date with a Chatty Cathy doll. I expect you have a little string on your chest, you know, that I pull out and have to snap back. Except I wouldn't pull it out and snap it back, you would. Agh! Agh! Agh! Agh! And by the way, you know, when you're telling these little stories? Here's a good idea: have a point. It makes it so much more interesting for the listener!

  • Neal: [riding in back of pickup truck in freezing cold] What do you think the temperature is?

    Del: One.
