A tribute to the original, traditional, one-hundred-percent, red-blooded, two-fisted, all-American Christmas.
The comic mishaps and adventures of a young boy named Ralph, trying to convince his parents, teachers, and Santa that a Red Ryder B.B. gun really is the perfect Christmas gift for the 1940s.
DirectorBob Clark

A Christmas Story keeps every mind human — it fights its subject at zero distance. The story fights on E8/E9/E10 of the E0–E14 reality ladder, compressing consumerism, family, tradition.
