Hey there, and welcome back to another episode of Almost Classic Movies! This week, weâre diving into the festive chaos of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, the 1989 holiday favorite written by John Hughes and starring Chevy Chase.
We had a blast unpacking the hilarity, heart, and disasters of the Griswold family Christmas. From Clarkâs over-the-top decorating antics to Cousin Eddieâs unforgettable arrival, this movie gave us plenty to laugh (and cringe) about.
If youâre looking for a deep dive into one of the most relatable and chaotic holiday moviesâor just need an excuse to watch Chevy Chase try to deliver the âperfectâ family Christmasâthis episode is for you.
