  • I went looking for this scene on UA-cam the other day and couldn't find it, unfortunately. So I decided to put it up myself! This is one of my family's favorite Christmas movies, and this is one of the most quoted scenes in my house year-round. Enjoy! ^_^
    These steps might as well be Mount Everest.

    You know this scene while meant to be funny is in it's own way pretty artistic. I wanna believe it had some improvistic elements to it, actors like to draw from personal experiences to deliver lines and this whole setup of a lonely old woman coming to meet her son sounds a story that was passed on to someone. The lines of Mt. Everest, drawing up a will, and don't side with the bad child honey were very well executed as well.
