The narrator was Jean Shepard. He was also the author of the book and wrote the screenplay for the movie.

love it when the mom shuts off the lamp on their way to get a Christmas tree, and comes out and says simply
"I don't want to waste electricity"

...meanwhile all the lights are still on inside the house.

One part of the movie that reminded me of my mom, was after Ralphie got done with the soap his mom said "go in your room lights off, and I better not finding you reading comic books". Then he obviously scowled at her, and she said "Dont you give me that look, your gonna get it". :-) Thats my mom to a T.

the Dad in Christmas Story reminds me so much of my dad. Growing up my dad was always fixing stuff in the house, on the cars (AMC Hornet, and a few 1971 Cutlasses....seemed like we always had Cutlasses! My first car was a 442 lol).

my dad was remodeling/fixing up an old narly bathroom in the basement - I hear him sawing (yes...sawing...as in handsaw ) into the wall etc...then I hear him yelll "Aaaaaaa". I go down there (I'm probably 8) and he's 'taking a knee' on the floor etc, I ask him what happened and he said he cut into a power line lol. he shut off the power to the bathroom etc, but apparently the way the wiring was run for the other parts of the house, som 220 lines headed to the stove upstairs were still live. lol.

there are so many other stories of my dad cheating death...

my old man was fluent in obscenities too.

This is one of my four required shows each year. Every Christmas season I need to watch -
A Charlie Brown Christmas
Its A Wonderful Life
Christmas Vacation
A Christmas Story

I usually watch A Christmas Story while wrapping presents on Christmas Eve.

Really? I thought it was Daniel Pinkwater, and I thought the narrator was never listed in the credits.....Now I'll have to go watch again.
