A Christmas Story

[CH4]

How many will watch at least 5 minutes of it?

"In the heat of battle, my father wove a tapestry of obscenities that, as far as we know, is still hanging in space over Lake Michigan."


For me, it encapsulates how I imagine Christmas is supposed to be.

Just finished watching it. Tomorrow I may catch a few minutes here and there between games.

Merry Christmas, everyone!

I think the house in Cleveland used in the movie is now sort of a tourist attraction/museum about the movie.

 

[STCM(SW)]

I have a Red Rider BB gun too....

"The old man loved bargaining as much as an Arab trader and he was twice as shrewd."

My kids have adapted this as their mantra in life when it comes to buying anything. I take it as a compliment!!

 

[ACORN]

I watch it every year.

Oh yeah, it's a fixture in our yearly rotation. We have the DVD in the event they ever stop the 24 hour runs in the future….

I love it.......wife hates it. So I watch it without her. The story is set many years before I was born but I can still relate to some of the scenes.

We all (kids and grandkids) watch it's a "Wonderful Life" on Christmas Eve.

I've always wanted a leg lamp. Afraid it might get broken shipping, you know they are fra-gee-lay, it's Italian.

I might catch it after Die Hard. One of my favorite Christmas movies. Although on line there is a battle of whether it's an action movie that happens to be at Christmas or a Christmas movie in its own right. Either way, it's a fun watch.

I'm sorry to say I've never watched "Die Hard". I'll have to seen if it's airing or streaming.

 

[Rustyt1953]

Another Christmas movie.

I have a fondness for the "Christmas Story" film as it was filmed in my neighborhood. I knew the original owner of the house it was filmed at on W.11th at Rowley avenue. My grandfather owned a few houses on that street. I grew up with many of the neighbors. A friend has home movies from the filming. The film has a very large following in Cleveland. I watch it several times each season. Kinda odd watching a major movie that was filmed where I used to hang around. Even though the house is a tourist attraction, the neighborhood overall is mostly like it was when they filmed it. Perhaps a little better maintained, that's all.
