Fathom Events' Big Screen Classics series wraps up 2023 with the beloved 1983 comedy "A Christmas Story"--- returning to theaters nationwide in honor of its 40TH Anniversary on Sunday, December 10 at 4pm and 7pm local time, and Wednesday, December 13 at 7 pm local time. Each Screening features an exclusive introduction by Cinema Historian Leonard Maltin, discussing the rare magic of this classic hit.
It's the final days before Christmas in early 1940s Cleveland, and 9-year-old Ralphie wants one thing from Santa more than anything else: a Red Ryder Carbine Action Air Rifle. As he trudges through the snow to school, faces the neighborhood bully and visits a malevolent department store Santa Claus, Ralphie connives, conspires, and campaigns for the most fabulous Christmas present ever in this heartwarming, hysterical and sweetly nostalgic holiday film.
Based on the tales of celebrated American humorist Jean Shepherd, who also provides the film's trademark narration, "A Christmas Story" is directed by Bob Clark, from a script written by Shepherd, and Leigh Brown, and stars Peter Billingsley, Darren McGavin and Melinda Dillon.
Each screening includes an exclusive introduction by noted critic and historian Leonard Maltin, who discusses the Christmas classic's surprising audience-driven success, and the charming story and magical cast that make the film such a rare masterpiece.
WHEN: Sunday, December 10 at 4 pm and 7 pm local time, and Wednesday, December 13 at 7 pm local time.
