if you have not seen this little gem i suggest checking it out.

i consider it to be one of the best holiday movies out there, among others of course, and highly recommend it.

imdb link - good synopsis (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085334/)

set in the 1940's it a tale of a young boy Ralphy and his quest for a red-rider bb-gun for christmas. the movie uses a first person narrative style similar to the "Wonder Years" (although definately less sappy and more hilarious).

if you were searching for another holiday movie to watch definately check it out.

cheers,

You know you can buy the leg lamp right? If I really loved my GF I'd get her one

If you haven't seen this little gem either, I suggest checking it out.

Set in the 1940's, it's the story of a mafia don who is shot at a fruit stand, but doesn't die. To get revenge his son shoots a cop in a restaurant and then goes to Italy for a while. After his wife blows up in a car, he leaves Italy to return to the good ole' USA where his father, who you may remember survived a gun shot wound, has a heart attack with an orange in his mouth. Then Abe Vigoda dies. The End.

If you were searching for a movie to watch, definately check it out.

Becker,
James
