19. "A Christmas Story"

Jun 2016

with Darren McGavin is another of my faves to watch at Xmastime. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Christmas_Story

I also love Chevy Chase and "the Griswolds" in "National Lampoon's European Vacation." I remember staying in a London hotel in the 1980s that was just like the one the Griswolds stayed in - complete with shared bathroom down the hall!

The rest of the film is a hoot too - and a flashback to more innocent days in foreign travel.
