Movie Is A Real-Life Tragedy
December 20, 2019 by Dave Gibson   

Though the 1983 movie “A Christmas Story” did not make much of an impression when it was initially released, it has since become a perennial holiday favorite with families across the country. We are not only treated to Ralphie’s hilarious quest to obtain a Red Ryder BB gun, but the film also reminds us at least a little, of our own childhood, and Christmases past.

While most of us are familiar with the cult classic, many may not know the tragic way in which the director of A Christmas Story, Bob Clark, died…He was killed by a drunk-driving illegal alien.
