A Christmas Story (1983) Synopsis

More than anything, 9-year-old Ralphie Parker wants a powerful Red Ryder carbine-action, 200-shot range model air rifle for Christmas. Instead, his mother gave him a warning. So, to get his hands on the ultimate gift of the holiday season, Ralphie embarks on a mission to talk everyone--including his father, teacher, and even Santa Claus--into seeing things his way. However, Christmas Eve is just around the corner, and all hope seems lost. Will single-minded Ralphie survive the neighbourhood bullies, escape from overbearing Aunt Clara, and convince the adults he is mature enough to get the BB gun?—Nick Riganas
