A Christmas Story (1983)

A little boy in 1950s America desperately wants an air-rifle for Christmas, but everyone seems dead against it in this nostaligic story. In his quest for the BB gun, Ralphie undergoes many trials - like a C+ for his essay, guilt about daring a friend to stick his tongue on an icy fence. Narrated by the author, this film was directed by Bob Clark, who also made `Porky's'.
