NOVEMBER 5 & 8
A CHRISTMAS STORY (1983)
Celebrating the 40th Anniversary
We double-dog dare you not to love this heartwarming comedy. 9 year old Ralphie (Peter Billingsley) wants a “Red Ryder Carbine Action 200-shot Range Model Air Rifle” for Christmas, but no one else thinks that’s a good idea “You’ll shoot your eye out, kid!” Darren McGavin plays Ralphie’s dad, who receives an unusual lamp as a “major award.” “Aaah! Fra-GEE-lee! It must be Italian!” Rated PG
NOVEMBER 12 & 15
GREMLINS (1984)
A man visits a mysterious Chinatown shop and finds the perfect Christmas gift for his son: a cute, cuddly creature called a “mogwai.” It’s a terrific pet…so long as certain rules are followed (“Never feed him after midnight!”) Spoiler alert: the rules are broken! Billed as a horror comedy, some violent scenes prompted the creation of the PG-13 rating for future films. (“With mogwai comes much responsibility. But you didn’t listen.”) Rated PG
NOVEMBER 19 & 22
THE POLAR EXPRESS (2004)
“All aboard!” On Christmas Eve a boy takes a mysterious train bound for the North Pole, in this adaptation of the beloved children’s book by Chris Van Allsburg. The performance-capture animation used by director Robert Zemeckis made it possible for Tom Hanks to play six roles, including the conductor (“Tickets, please!”) and Santa Claus. (“The true spirit of Christmas lies in your heart.”) Rated G
NOVEMBER 26 & 29
WHITE CHRISTMAS (1954)
With comedy, romance, and of course, Bing Crosby singing White Christmas, this musical favorite is full of wonderful Irving Berlin songs (“Snow…snow… snow!”). Crosby and Danny Kaye star as World War II vets and Broadway performers who stage a show at a Vermont inn, with Rosemary Clooney and Vera Ellen as the singing Haynes Sisters. (“Lord help the mister who comes between me and my sister…”) Not rated
DECEMBER 3 & 6
ELF (2003)
Celebrating the 20th Anniversary
Will Ferrell stars as Buddy, an elf who is, well, different from the other elves. When Papa Elf (Bob Newhart) informs Buddy that he was adopted, he sets out to find his real father (James Caan). A modern Christmas classic, thanks to Ferrell’s endearing performance as Buddy (“Son of a nutcracker!”), whose childlike Christmas spirit softens the most cynical of hearts. (“Santa, HERE? I know him, I know him!”) Rated PG
DECEMBER 10 & 13
NATIONAL LAMPOON’S CHRISTMAS VACATION (1989)
Clark Griswold (Chevy Chase) is determined to have a “good old-fashioned family Christmas,’’ but Cousin Eddie (Randy Quaid) and a house full of wacky relatives don’t make it easy. Chase and Quaid are joined by fellow Saturday Night Live alumni Julia Louis- Dreyfus and Brian Doyle-Murray. Beverly D’Angelo is Clark’s always supportive wife, Ellen. (“We checked every bulb, didn’t we?”) Rated PG-13
DECEMBER 17 & 20
DECEMBER 24
IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE (1946)
Frank Capra’s classic is a cherished Christmas tradition for countless families. Building & Loan owner George Bailey (James Stewart) is all that stands between the good people of Bedford Falls and the wicked miser Mr. Potter (Lionel Barrymore). When misfortune strikes on Christmas Eve, George realizes, with the help of an angel, that he truly has a “wonderful life.” (“No man is a failure who has friends.”) Rated PG
