Elf | W Film Club

Raised as an oversized elf at the North Pole, Buddy travels to New York City to find his biological father and spread holiday cheer. Spread the holiday spirit with Jon Favreau’s modern festive classic, Elf. Buddy (Will Ferrell) is a human who was accidentally transported to the North Pole as a baby and raised among Santa’s elves. As an adult, his massive size and terrible toy-making abilities make it impossible to hide the truth. Upon learning he is human, Buddy travels to New York City in his full elf outfit to locate his biological father, Walter Hobbs (James Caan), a cynical book publisher on Santa's naughty list. Unprepared for the harsh realities of the big city, Buddy brings his relentless optimism, love for sugar, and infectious joy to cynical Manhattan, transforming the lives of his new family, winning the heart of a jaded department store worker (Zooey Deschanel), and trying to save Christmas cheer before Santa's sleigh flies over Central Park. Packed with hilarious lines, boundless warmth, and pure festive fun, Elf is a holiday tradition that never fails to bring the smiles. • Director: Jon Favreau • Run Time: 1h 37m (97 minutes) • Cast: Will Ferrell, James Caan, Zooey Deschanel, Mary Steenburgen, Daniel Tay, Ed Asner, Bob Newhart This film is rated PG.
