A Christmas Story is a 1983 American Christmas comedy film directed by Bob Clark. Although initially overlooked upon release, it has since become a Christmas classic with a cult following. It is my personal favourite Christmas film of all time and I would like to share some trivia about it today with AMO’s readers. Merry Christmas!

Give me a hansom cab, a magnifying glass, a diabolical mystery, a deerstalker, a rattled-off deduction and Dr Watson being baffled, and I’m usually happy. I enjoy most Sherlock Holmes films – with the exception of the Peter Cook and Dudley Moore version of The Hound of the Baskervilles and the likes of Sherlock Homie: The Ass Detective, of course – but here I select my particular favourites, highlighting slightly off-the-beaten-track efforts.
