UNCLE BUCK - OFFICIAL TRAILER - 1989

Bob and Cindy Russell have recently moved from Indianapolis with their three children, 15-year-old Tia, 8-year-old Miles, and 6-year-old Maizy, to the Chicago suburbs because of Bob's promotion. One night, the Russells receive a phone call informing them that Cindy's father has suffered a heart attack. Resentful about the life she was forced to leave behind in Indianapolis, Tia blames the heart attack on Cindy, leaving her relationship with her mother fraught. Bob and Cindy unsuccessfully attempt to find a carer for the children, and are forced to turn to Bob's brother, Buck, whom Cindy believes to be unreliable and a bad influence. Buck lives in a small apartment in Chicago, is a heavy drinker and smoker, drives a run-down 1977 Mercury Marquis Brougham Coupe, and earns his living by betting on rigged horse races. His long-term girlfriend, Chanice, desires to get married and start a family, while Buck wants to retain his freedom and lack of responsibility; Chanice warns him that he will eventually end up alone.
