Coupe de Ville

Coupe de Ville is a 1990 American comedy-drama film directed by Joe Roth. It stars Daniel Stern, Arye Gross, and Patrick Dempsey as three very different brothers asked by their father to drive the titular Cadillac Coupe DeVille from Detroit to Miami. Meet the Libner brothers: Marvin , the oldest, is a sergeant in the U.S. Air Force. Buddy , the middle child, is a timid dreamer. Bobby , the youngest, is a handsome rebel in reform school. As kids, they fought a lot and as adults, they barely speak to each other. In the summer of 1963, their tough and eccentric father, Fred , gives them a task:... to bring a 1954 Cadillac, bought for their mother, Betty , from Detroit to Miami. As the trip goes on, the three brothers fight and begin to reconnect with each other, while trying to keep the Caddy in mint condition. Coupe de Ville received moderate reviews. The film was a box office failure; in its opening weekend , it didn't even make the charts, only grossing $66,871. In the end, Coupe de Ville only opened in 170 theaters and made $715,983 in the US.
