A Christmas Story
Based on the writings of author Jean Shepherd, Bob Clark’s beloved family favorite A Christmas Story perfectly captures the wintry magic of the season through a series of unforgettable vignettes. As 9 year old Ralphie (Peter Billingsley) pines for a Red Ryder B.B. gun to appear as the perfect gift under the tree, his parents, teacher and even the department store Santa all warn: “You’ll shoot your eye out.”
“There is a real knowledge of human nature beneath the comedy. 4 stars.” – Roger Ebert
