Ellipsis Movie Countdown #11

 

"Can I refill your eggnog for you?
 Get you something to eat?
 Drive you out in the middle of nowhere and leave you for dead?

~Clark W. Griswold (Chevy Chase)

The Griswold's do Christmas... but this time... it's a staycation. On Christmas. What can go wrong? I loved the vacation movies, and this one was brilliant and heartwarming, and very relatable! Who hasn't either hosted or attended a crazy Christmas get together? I know I have attended my share. After my sister got married, she insisted on hosting the holidays. She was right that she had more room, and she tried really hard, but no matter what, you can't wave a wand and change the personalities of those who come for the festivities! Well, that's what the Griswold's learn about their holiday. But in the end, love wins out over anything. That's what Christmas is all about!
