A Christmas Story Christmas picks up with Ralph Parker and family anticipating a visit from his mom and "the old man" for Christmas. A phone call from his mother changes everything, and Ralph and family pack up the car to drive back home.
With his father gone, Ralph feels the burden of creating the perfect Christmas for his family. Everything he plans goes wrong, but in A Christmas Story fashion, everything manages to turn out ok, anyway.
I went into A Christmas Story Christmas cautiously optimistic. I knew Peter Billingsley wanted to create a story that was true to the original.
He absolutely succeeded.
I found myself laughing as I watched Ralph bungle his way through Christmas. The cast includes the characters (played by the original actors) of Flick, Schwartz, Randy and even Scut Farkus. Flick even gets his revenge for the flag pole incident when they were kids. Rounding out the cast are Ralph's wife and children, each of whom have some memorable scenes of their own.
Congratulations, Mr. Billingsley. I think you have another classic on your hands.
