Jack and Jill
His twin sister is coming for the holidays... and it ain't pretty.
A broad family comedy centered on sibling friction during the holidays, relying on physical humor and exaggerated character quirks rather than warmth or depth.
Jack Sadelstein, a successful advertising executive in Los Angeles with a beautiful wife and kids, dreads one event each year: the Thanksgiving visit of his twin sister Jill. Jill's neediness and passive-aggressiveness is maddening to Jack, turning his normally tranquil life upside down.
