Synopsis
The Daytrippers (1997) is an American indie comedy-drama — watch it online on iFILM. Director Greg Mottola's debut feature brings together Hope Davis, Parker Posey, Stanley Tucci, and Liev Schreiber for a single-day road trip built around one unanswered question.
Eliza finds a love note in her husband Louis's coat. It isn't for her. Instead of waiting for an explanation, she drives to the city — with her mother, father, sister Jo, and Jo's verbose boyfriend all crammed into the family station wagon. The confrontation they're heading toward keeps shifting shape; the conversations trapped inside the car are what the film is actually about.
Mottola squeezes a full family portrait into 87 minutes without padding. The confined space does the work: old tensions surface fast when no one can leave. Stream The Daytrippers online on iFILM.
