Tommy Boy

Director: Peter Segal
Actors: Chris Farley, David Spade, Brian Dennehy
PlotAfter seven years at college, an enthusiastic but dim-witted man returns to his hometown in Ohio upon graduating. He arrives just in time for his father’s wedding to a much younger woman and is set to join the family business, a struggling auto parts factory. Shortly after the wedding, his father passes away suddenly, leaving the company in his inexperienced hands. Facing potential bankruptcy and the livelihood of hundreds of employees at stake, he teams up with his late father's sarcastic assistant. Together, they embark on a cross-country road trip in an attempt to save the company by securing crucial sales contracts.
Throughout the journey, the duo encounters a series of comical mishaps and personal challenges that test their patience and friendship. As they clash due to their starkly different personalities, they slowly learn to work as a team. This partnership helps them grow individually and in their combined efforts to save the factory. Their quest for success is further complicated by rival businessmen and unforeseen obstacles, including attempts to undermine their mission. The story blends humor with themes of loyalty, perseverance, and personal growth, culminating in a series of unpredictable developments as they fight to secure the future of their family business.
