Top Ten Best Scenes In a Christmas Story
I think A Christmas Story is basically the best Christmas movie I've seen. These are the best scenes in the film..It's actually the F-word that Ralphie says. The crew may have wanted to censor the F-word and make it "Fudge" instead. But yes, that is a really complex scene.
That part where the mother breaks the lamp on purpose, and the old man finds out, is funny. It's also kind of funny how the old man tried to glue the lamp back together, but it collapsed and he buried it outside.
The Chinese singers were really funny. They kept messing up the songs they were singing. When they had to sing a new song, it was just "Jingle Bells" sung in a weird way.
Incredible scene and the tradition of eating out at Chinese restaurants on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day.
Ralphie actually "shoots his eye out" after trying out his new gun, but then the pellet hits the board and ricochets back toward Ralphie, striking him in the eye.
That part where Flick sticks his tongue to the pole was incredibly funny. There were even police cars and fire trucks arriving to save him.
The Santa at the store that Ralphie and his family went to was very evil, as well as the elves. They actually forced them to jump onto Santa's lap, screamed, and then pushed them down the slide.
The dogs that the old man is enemies with destroyed the turkey that the family was going to eat for Christmas dinner. Then, and this is the best part, they jump up, grab the turkey, and run off.
Ralphie said a ton of dirty things to his bully while beating him up. You can also see blood coming out of the bully's nose.
Most relatable. Depression turns to rage, then the sight of his mother causes him to break down. A boy seeing his mother's face immediately after his most violent moment would make any boy feel awful.
Ralphie's teacher gave him a C+ on his assignment, and then his teacher started laughing violently. Then he sees "You'll shoot your eye out" on his assignment. He then imagines his mother as the Joker and Miss Shields, his teacher, as a witch, yelling "You'll shoot your eye out!" All of that was hilarious.
Dramatic music plays while Ralphie uncovers a message he has been hoping for. Then the message turns out to be "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine." Ralphie then finds out it's a rip-off.
Upon the arrival of the old man's "Special Award," he tries to guess what it could be. Just before opening the crate and unleashing the beloved (to himself and Ralphie) leg lamp prize, he reads the box and proclaims, "Fra-gi-le... It must be Italian," to which Ralph's mother replies, "It says FRAGILE."
