38. National Lampoons Christmas Vacation: Holiday Stress, Creating the 'Perfect' Christmas, and Fake Turtleneck Fashion!
On this episode, Rick is joined by Michael Davis to break down the 1989 Christmas comedy, National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. Enjoy some nostalgia and laughter as they reflect on their favorite iconic images from the movie and explore their own Griswold tendencies. Then they dive into the primary therapeutic theme of coping with holiday stress - including the self induced stress of trying to create the perfect Christmas. Then they dive into what drives Clark Griswold and how we would help him navigate the holidays more effectively. Plus, they accidentally invent a practical upgrade to Cousin Eddie’s faux turtleneck!
Cinema Sessions is hosted by Rick Guttersohn and Kailah Tuttle
