    This movie is just so good at capturing the excitement of that one Christmas when there was that one toy you just so badly wanted.

    And the parent's job, of course, was to make you believe that you wouldn't be getting it, so that you'd be more surprised when you did - just like in the movie. I had not idea at the time what a setup the whole thing was for parental sadism.

    Mom really wasn't going to get him the Red Ryder though.

    Thank God for dad to save the day at the end.

    The way you had to twist the end of the barrel to put in more BB's. I had a friend who couldn't get his to twist, so he used his teeth. He shot a BB into the under-side of his tongue. He didn't want to tell his parents, and it was still there when we graduated from high school.

    Agreed.

    For this film and Nightstalker Darren McGavin will always be a hero of mine.
    Much love for Nightstalker.

    It has been a great Christmas... I got great seats to the Mavs in SPURS in Dallas with a parking pass for the Apr. 7th game. It was also a birthday gift too. I'll be in 106 area. The 2 tickets was $308 apiece. My birthday is on the 9th of April.
