A Christmas Story is about a family living in a small town in the 1940's. The elder son, Ralphie (Peter Billingsley) wants to have a perfect Christmas containing the perfect gift, a Red Ryder carbon action BB gun.
Trailer:
Fun fact:
In 2005 the original house used for the exterior shots of the family home was bought by an avid fan of the movie, Brian Jones for $150,000. Jones spent a year restoring the home to the way it looked in the film and in late 2006, it opened its doors as a tourist attraction.
Where to find it:
YouTube: €2.99
iTunes: €3.991

Woo hoo!! One of my all time favourite films! :pac:
l showed it to my brother when he was 9 and it became his Christmas No.1
Peter Bilingsley perfectly plays a kid in the grip of Christmas fever over the toy gun he so badly wants. He has to run the gamut of a disapproving Mum and every otther adult, including a Dept. Store Santa, telling him he'll shoot his eye out. The pressure to have his wish come true is relentless and is not helped by the daily dodging the neighbourhood bullies, surely Ralphie can't last until the big day?
It's a genuine mix of 40s nostalgia, homespun storytelling and the kind of Christmas we all daydream about, but perhaps not including the Bumpus hounds
It's my "first day of Christmas FM" movie.0 -
