I get the feeling Bob Clark didn't really like Christmas.
on 9/2/2010
Two of the greatest Christmas movies ever made.. and they're both by Bob Clark.
I grew up on A Christmas Story, watching it innumerable times and quoting it on a daily basis for years. If I had to compile a list of the most significant movies I saw as a pre-teen, A Christmas Story would easily place in the Top 10. The movie changed me in ways I may never fully understand. I watched Black Christmas just recently, and I can say that it will not hold much significance even out of movies I saw this year. It is true that I saw A Christmas Story during an impressionable time of my life, and so it had a better chance of getting me in its clutches. But them's the breaks. And I don't know that Black Christmas would've seemed all that much better when I was a kid, anyway.
A Christmas Story is an enduring classic and my favorite Christmas movie.
