The Night Before (2015) (Holiday Special!)
Manage episode 455259537 series 3612370
It's Christmas time in NYC, and three friends are about to embark on their very last annual Christmas rager together. Joseph Gordon Levitt is an orphan, stuck in a dead-end job with no real career prospects and no romantic partner. Seth Rogan is coming to terms with his fears over being a father, and Anthony Mackie is a pro athlete, so obsessed with fame, that he's willing to risk his family, friendships, and integrity for his career.
That's where the 2015 Holiday and Christmas future classic, The Night Before begins. What will ensue is a journey which includes Michael Shannon's weed of Christmas Past, Present, and future, a quest to deliver an illicit gift to the "messiah", and obstacles ranging from the hijinks of Ilana Glazer's "Grinch" to a psychotropic freakout during midnight mass. Diversions include that one time (or more?) Bill puked during Catholic mass, Michael Shannon skipping the Oscars to drink at Old Town Ale House in Chicago, and the very real fact that the Catholic Mass contained antisemitic language until the early 60s.
So, spike your egg nog, hang your stockings by the chimney with care, and deck the halls as we join Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Anthony Mackie, Seth Rogan, Jillian Bell, Miley Cyrus, Lizzy Caplan, Nathan Fielder and more for 2015's The Night Before.
