    You'll Shoot Your Eye Out !!!!!

    It has been 30 years that the movie " A Christmas Story" was released Based on Jean Shepherds shorts stories in the book In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash
    One of my favorites movies ever holiday or not In 2012 it was selected to the Nation Film Registry by the Library Of Congress....... So it must be that it won a "Major Award"

    I think I can recite that movie by heart. It's a part of our Christmas tradition.

    "Randy just lay there like a slug. It was his only defense."

    One of the cable channels ( TBS, I think) runs it as a 24 hour marathon on Christmas Eve Just the scene for the "Major Award" is well worth cost the Netflicks rental

    It is for my family too.... When it came out in video we had a Beta Max... Then we had to get a new one when we got a VHS, then DVD. LOL
    I worked for a dental office for 13 years and it was a staple at our office Christmas party.

    I think it's only a $1.99 to rent it on Amazon streaming video. Well-worth it.

    rosa, yes you can rent it and watch it online through amazon. Count me in the camp that would highly recommend it. It's definitely my favorite christmas movie. (and actually the only one that I ever have any desire to see.)
