A Christmas Story

(1983)

You’ll shoot your eye out!

Of all the Christmas movies out there that play on “americana,” this one might take the cake. Even the font on the movie poster evokes Norman Rockwell. It’s set during the late 30s/early 40s, and centers around Ralphy, who–like ALL kids at that age–desperately wants the perfect Christmas gift. Does he get it? We watch and find out.
