A Christmas Story - Special Edition 2-Disc Set


In a small 1940's Indiana town, nine-year old Ralphie Parker dreams of a perfect Christmas morning complete with the ultimate holiday gift: "a Genuine Red Ryder Carbine Action Two-Hundred Shot Lightning Loader Range Model Air Rifle!" However both his gruffly lovable father and doting mother respond with the patent "no, you'll shoot your eye out". But Ralphie's persistence may just make his dream come true. Stars Darren McGavin, Peter Billingsley, Melinda Dillon, Ian Petrella
