Lifestyle Man on the street: What is your favorite holiday movie? November 24, 2016 Interviews and photos by Thomas Warner Contributing writer Spc. Katlyn James“‘A Christmas Story’ — It’s my favorite movie personally because it was kind of a tradition growing up. It was my mom’s favorite Christmas movie, and every Christmas Eve they play the 24-hour marathon, so we literally watch it over and over all day long. It’s, like, amazing!” Frank Miranda“‘A Christmas Story’ — It’s very comical and reminds me of when I was little and how things were. The whole thing — the parents are just out there, and the kids are just experiencing life. It’s told by a little kid, and I think that’s just wonderful.” Valerie Rashid“‘Home Alone’ — It’s a great family movie, and I really enjoy watching with my children or with my husband. And it’s really funny.” Airman 1st Class Daniel Stromatt“‘Santa Claus’ — It’s a funny movie with Tim Allen, and I like all of Tim Allen’s comedies. He really makes me laugh, and that’s a great movie to watch around Christmas.” Senior Airman Anthony Oldham“‘Elf’ — With Will Farrell realizing he’s not actually an elf, so he goes to find his real dad and bring the spirit of Christmas to everyone. I guess I love it because me and my siblings back home in Arizona have always watched it every year. It’s a good time. My parents like to watch it too. It’s always funny.” Lt. Col. Joe Appel“‘A Christmas Story’ — It’s pretty much everybody’s favorite, about a little kid who wants a BB-gun for Christmas, and his parents don’t want him to get it. It goes through different things with the kid at school and funny things that happen to him. It reminds me of when I was a kid, and I was the youngest brother. We’d always shoot BB-guns and do that sort of stuff. It’s a funny movie, but it also reminds me of my childhood, as well.” Tags: Man on the street « Previous × Next » Share Tweet
