My choice has to be - A Christmas Story (1983)
Don't get me started on this movie. Every scene every word of dialogue is priceless.
My Fav LINE: You'll put your eye out.

And of course Charlie Brown will always play into my Christmas plans.
Something funny about this movie: it wasn't until years later that I realized this movie takes place in Indiana. For years I thought it took place in Cleveland, Ohio. Later I found out it was filmed in Cleveland (and Toronto, Ontario) but the story is set in Indiana. Maybe I was confused because the family lived on Cleveland Street. I don't know. I'm a dingbat.
I didn't care for this movie the first few times I watched it. It grew on me. I guess TBS helped a bit by playing the movie over and over again on Christmas Eve.
My favorite scene in the movie is the flag pole dare!
My sister and I use to dare each other to stick our tongues on the metal ice cube trays when we were kids. WHEW!!! God, that was terrible. But for some reason, I love the flag pole scene. I have a sick sense of humor I guess.
I also like the "soap" scene. I had my mouth washed out with soap numerous times when I was a kid. But it wasn't Lifeboy. It was Ivory. Oh, it tasted terrible. YUCK!
