Clickable Advent Calendar, 2 – A Christmas Story (mix)
Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008Since A Christmas Story celebrated its 25th anniversary in Cleveland yesterday, it probably doesn’t count as a “new” holiday classic movie. Released Dec. 1 in 1983, it proved a modest success, but really crossed over from cult flick to mainstream favorite when TNT began airing 24-hour marathons in 1997. Now it seems as much a part of the season as It’s a Wonderful Life and that commercial with Santa Claus riding the electric razor. This year’s marathon begins at 8 p.m. Dec. 24 on TBS, but until then, here’s a remix video of the film, and while the language is unbelievably filthy and NSFW, it seems to “work” better than you’d imagine.
