Directed by Jon Favreau and written by David Berenbaum, Elf stars Will Ferrell as Buddy the elf.
Rob and Jason rewind to the year 2003 to discover their inner elves and celebrate the 20th anniversary of this Christmas comedy film.
Buddy was accidentally transported to the North Pole as a toddler and raised to adulthood among Santa's elves. Unable to shake the feeling that he doesn't fit in, the adult Buddy travels to New York, in full elf uniform, in search of his real father. As it happens, this is Walter Hobbs (James Caan), a cynical businessman. After a DNA test proves this, Walter reluctantly attempts to start a relationship with the childlike Buddy with increasingly chaotic results.
