Based on humorist 's autobiographical short stories, directed by, and narrated by Shepherd himself, the 1983 film A Christmas Story lovingly and hilariously depicts a childhood Christmas in America. Nine-year-old Ralphie Parker (Peter Billingsley) wants one and only one thing for Christmas: a BB gun. It's not just any BB gun he wants, either; his heart is set on an Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle with a compass in the stock (and ).

But his mother, his teacher, and even the tell him, in an ever-deepening refrain, 'You'll shoot your eye out!' In the meantime, we're treated to numerous amusing episodes involving Ralphie, his parents (Darren McGavin and Melinda Dillon), his kid brother Randy (Ian Petrella), and various other inhabitants of Hohman, Indiana. The film, which was primarily drawn from material in Shepard's 1966 book In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash, has come to be embraced as a perennial holiday favorite.

It eventually spawned a play, as well as two sequels: the made-for-TV Ollie Hopnoodle's Haven of Bliss and 1994's (aka 'My Summer Story', not to be confused with the / collaboration), both of which are notable in that none of the original film's cast members are in either of the others (save actress Tedde Moore [Miss Shields], who appears in the latter).

• Also for some, Lifebuoy soap. While they don't advertise like they used to (they used to sponsor ads at several baseball stadiums, which tended to get vandalized), it's been continually produced since 1894. • While it's most associated with this movie, the 'Drink More Ovaltine' ring decoded message was a very real thing that dates all the way back to the 1930's.

And now Ovaltine is. •: To keep the film kid-friendly, strings of profanity are rendered as vaguely obscene-sounding gibberish: • The Old Man's string of profanities when battling the furnace. Schwartz’s frenzied screeching while beating her son. • Ralphie flies into this when beating Scut. The only intelligible phrase is 'son of a bitch'. •: Farkus' qualifies. •: 'You'll shoot your eye out,' a warning of what may, and does, happen if Ralph were to get the BB gun.
