I lived the life of Ralphie! Even though I'm a girl and was born in the late seventies, my Christmases were much the same as Ralphie's.
From playing Santa on Christmas morning to sipping my Dad's Christmas cocktail to visiting Santa at the department store, I lived the very same Christmas memories. This movie brings out the true essence of Christmas happiness. Everyone, young and old, can relive the magic of being a child.
Ralphie's vibrant imagination and inventiveness in his ploys to seduce his parents into buying him the ultimate gift are "pinch-his-chubby-cheeks" adorable. And Randy...need I say anything?? He is the perfect picture of the baby brother!
This movie is universal in its appeal to audiences of all ages, race, and nationalities. My husband, who grew up in Lebanon and who's first language is Arabic, even knew the famous "oh fudge" line when I first played this movie for him here in the States.
I get giddy every time I sit down to watch this movie. Curling up with a warm cup of cider in front of the fireplace, wrapping Christmas presents, making Christmas cookies, or writing a letter to Santa Claus...those are all perfect times to watch this classic family film. This has been and always will be my all-time favorite Christmas film.

I wanted to be Alice. I wanted to wear cute little dresses and shiny black patent leather shoes. I wanted to dance with a caterpillar and float down a river of my own tears!!
This movie combines colors, music, imagery, and a lively cast to create the perfect children's movie. Every single cast member shone in their own light. Ann Jillian and Sammy Davis Jr. were my favorites!!
I can't imagine a film where the director spent more time focusing on the visual "smorgasbord" of colors and images!! The songs were easy to sing to, and Alice presented a lovely little girl who just wanted to be grown-up.
I hope that, someday, they replay this movie so that the children of the world can fall in love all over again with their imaginations. Anything they create today, anything they create TOMORROW will never even come close to the magic of this movie. This should be right up there with "The Wizard of Oz" in the children's movie section of your local video store.

Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah supported by Eugene Levy and John Candy are hilariously divine!!! This film spawns an era of greats!! The late John Candy would be my favorite as big brother Freddy. He lovingly gives his advice to Tom Hanks' character in a way that only a pervert could love!
Eugene Levy, the pesky scientist-turned-mermaid-seeker, is funny and clever in his antics. He tries in vain to prove that Daryl Hannah (Madison) is a mermaid. He ends up scoring a broken arm, busted tooth, and a damaged reputation.
I would have loved to see a "Splash II", but considering that it would all have to be filmed underwater, I don't think anyone would give it a try.
Tom has gone on to make it big with such greats as "Saving Private Ryan", "Forest Gump", and "That Thing You Do" but I still consider his "debut" to be "Splash". He is the greatest.
