I never could see what everybody thinks is so great about that movie. Kind of weird, IMO. But I do love when the kid gets his tongue stuck to the flagpole & the family gets the lamp from "FRAGILE", a foreign country. LOL!!! :wah:

i think the appeal of 'a christmas story' is that it takes people back to a simpler more innocent time. same with 'a wonderful life', it's the nostalgia factor.

That was a pretend santa in Christmas Story, no relation to me.

But the story shows the fun of the Holiday Season. I enjoyed the rendition of Jingle Bells at the end of the movie.

Honestly, I know it's cheesy, but It's a Wonderful Life still makes me cry. I can't help it, it just gets me right in the old ticker!

"meet me in st. louis" with judy garland is on TCM right now...this movie introduced the song "have yourself a merry little christmas".

lady cop · Post by **lady cop** » Sun Nov 27, 2005 7:26 am

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,

Let your heart be light

From now on,

our troubles will be out of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas,

Make the Yule-tide gay,

From now on,

our troubles will be miles away.

Here we are as in olden days,

Happy golden days of yore.

Faithful friends who are dear to us

Gather near to us once more.

Through the years

We all will be together,

If the Fates allow

Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.

And have yourself A merry little Christmas now.

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas Ã¢â‚¬â€œ lyrics

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas!

The heart warming Christmas song Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas was immortalised by Judy Garland when she sang this song to Margaret O'Brien and brought tears to the eyes of the audience.

The lyricist for Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas was Ralph Blane and the haunting music was composed by Hugh Martin.

The song Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas was first published in 1943. The title of Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas is undoubtedly one of the saddest Christmas songs of the century.

As far as new ones (well relatively-compared to the ones already listed,

Christmas Carol, Miracle on 34th Street & It's a Wonderful Life). I like The Santa

Clause...with Tim Allen, only the first one though. And the other two favorites

that come to mind, one already listed..".Jingle all the way"...Sinbad kills me...love ARNOLD!!....and my kids and I LOVE "Ernest saves Christmas"...yes we are goofy!!

My Mom LOVES the Christmas Story, watches it all year long...She loves the Chinese resturant scene!...and wants a lamp that is fragile (pronounced fra-gily)...
