Focus Film’s highly praised dramedy The Holdovers made its streaming debut on Peacock just before 2023 ended, then kicked off the new year as an award winner. Whether it’s your first time seeing the film or you want to rewatch it from the comfort of your couch, you now have streaming options to watch it online.

Awards season kicked off on Sunday (Jan. 7) with the Golden Globes, and by the end of the night, the heartwarming film had racked up two Golden Globe wins for actor in a musical or comedy (Paul Giamatti) as well as supporting actress in a motion picture (Da’vine Joy Randolph).

Taking place in 1970, the film follows Paul Hunham (Giamatti), a grouchy instructor at a New England prep school who remains on campus during Christmas break to supervise a handful of students with nowhere else to go. What he doesn’t expect is to form an unlikely bond with the school’s brainy yet troublemaking student Angus (Dominic Sessa), as well as the school’s head cook Mary Lamb (Randolph), who just lost her son to the Vietnam War.

Other cast members include Carrie Preston, Brady Hepner, Ian Dolley, Jim Kaplan, Michael Provost, Andrew Garman, Naheem Garcia, Stephen Thorne, Gillian Vigman and Tate Donovan.
