A Christmas Story 1:
The Christmas spirit isn't served up with more heartfelt warmth or observant hilarity than in this beloved adaptation of Jean Shepherd's holiday story. In 1940's Indiana, nine-year old Ralphie (Peter Billingley) dreams of his ideal Christmas gift: a genuine Red Ryder 200-shot Carbine Action Air rifle. But when gruff dad (Darren McGavin) and doting mum (Melinda Dillon) regularly respond with "You'll shoot your eye out!" Ralphie mounts a full-scale, hint-dropping, Santa-begging campaign. He also endures all kinds of childhood calamities from snowsuit paralysis to the yellow-eyed Scotty Farkus affair to the dreaded tongue-on-a-frozen-flagpole gambit. We triple-dog-dare you to unwrap a more welcome Yuletide classic!

A Christmas Story 2:
The stories are new, but the spirit is timeless in this hilarious sequel to the favourite holiday classic. Ralphie and his friends Flick and Schwartz are almost old enough to drive, which means only one thing to the all-American teenager - and Ralphie has his heart set on a beauty of a car (not to mention a girl to go with it). Unfortunately, he wrecks it before it even leaves the lot and he and his friends must find jobs to pay off the damage. Meanwhile, the Old Man (Daniel Stern) continues fighting his suburban war, while Randy plays soldier and Mother stands patiently by to clean up the battlefield. Have new laughs with old friends in A Christmas Story 2 - 100 per cent authentic family fun!
