Gentle Friends, last night was a double feature... staring off the evening with...
..."National Lampoons Christmas Vacation" 1989. It's a film I see large chunks of every year as it is shown on many channels at many times throughout the season. I rarely watch it all the way through and really haven't in many years. It was a treat to just sit and watch the hijinks!!

I followed up Christmas Vacation with...
"A Christmas Carol" 1999 with Patrick Stewart as Ebenezer Scrooge. It's a fine interpretation and Stewart does his usual top-notch job throughout.

I'll be posting here off and on so stay tuned!! and Stay Safe!!
Good Thoughts! Good Words! Good Deeds!

I don't recall seeing this version of ACC... Another one to hunt down as I think I am somewhat addicted to ACC LOL. I have never cared for Christmas Vacation although I don't believe I've ever watched it all the way through either. Happy Friyay Edgar.... ~Robin~
ReplyDeleteGreat choices! I have not seen that Patrick Stewart version of a Christmas Carol. I am reading "Mr. Dickens and His Carol." So far it is proving to be a very good book!
ReplyDeleteSuper choices to watch! Happy weekend and enjoy your staycation, Edgar!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great combination! That version of "carol" is my favorite. The Grands were over yesterday and we decided a movie marathon was in order. They chose the "Santa Clause" trilogy. I have to admit that I saw "The Santa Clause" when it first came out and I did not like it at all (not a huge Tim Allen fan). I haven't seen it since. Until yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed the movies. Maybe it was because the Grands enjoy them so much. Or maybe it has something to do with getting older... hahaha
ReplyDeleteI love the audio version of Patrick Stewart reading A Christmas Carol and listen to it every year.
