THE STEPS (AWARDS NIGHT FILM)

Featuring a brilliant ensemble cast led by James Brolin and Oscar-winner Christine Lahti, this riotous comedy is about what happens when two already fraught families are forced to merge into one big dysfunctional clan. Still in the prime of life, seniors Ed (Brolin) and Sherry (Lahti) fall in love and decide to have their kids meet each other for a “step-sibling bonding” weekend. Ed’s two kids are New Yorkers, while Sherry’s three boys are Canadian—and all from different fathers (!) – inciting a culture clash that even nuptial bliss seems unlikely to conquer. The Steps also stars Jason Ritter and Entourage’s Emmanuelle Chriqui.
