A Christmas Story

Anyone else watching Sunday Morning on CBS?

The classic Christmas Story has an interesting backstory. It was originally a series of short stories in Playboy magazine! A writer took the short stories, put them in a book form which became the TV movie.

A young guy saw the house it was filmed in for sale. He bought it sight unseen without telling his wife. It's now a very popular shrine to Ralphie and his family.

And the story continues: It's now a Broadway play.....
