FRED CLAUS (2007)
SYNOPSIS
Fred Claus (Vince Vaughn) has lived his entire life in
his brother’s very large shadow. Fred tried, but
could hardly live up to the example set by the
younger Nicholas (Paul Giamatti), who was just a
perfect...well...saint. True to form, Nicholas grew up
to be the model of giving, while Fred became the
polar opposite: a fast-talking repo man who’s run
out of luck and money. Over Mrs. Claus’ objections,
Nicholas agrees to help his brother on one condition:
that he come to the North Pole and earn the money
he needs by working in Santa’s Toy Shop. The
trouble is that Fred isn’t exactly elf material and,
with Christmas fast approaching, Fred could
jeopardize the jolliest holiday of the year.
