Vacation (1983)

Clark Griswold heeft de gezinsvakantie goed uitgekiend. Samen met zijn vrouw Ellen, zijn zoon Rusty en zijn dochter Audrey wil hij heel Amerika doorkruisen om een paar dolle dagen te beleven in de pretparken aan de westkust. Dat hij weigert met het vliegtuig te reizen, kan niemand begrijpen. Zeker wanneer de nieuwe wagen een lelijke stationwagen blijkt te zijn in plaats van de bestelde sportauto. Saai wordt de trip niet, want waar Clark Griswold voorbij komt, gebeuren er altijd rare dingen...

Everything that can go wrong does go wrong in this outrageous farce, featuring the comic genius of Chevy Chase as the desperate dad looking for fun and Beverly D'Angelo as his willing wife. As they wind their way across the country, the Griswolds are forced to survive a series of absurd events and wacky detours. By the time they finally reach the gates of Walley World, they are more desperate for fun than ever.

The first film in the Vacation comedy franchise stars Chevy Chase as Clark Griswold, an ad exec who becomes consumed with taking his family cross-country to Wally World, a California amusement park. Less a vacation than a descent into a peculiarly American kind of hell, the Griswolds suffer through an endless series of catastrophes, culminating in a run-in with the law.
