Over the past six years, it feels like the world has been tackling one crisis after another. Immediately following the 2016 election of the most controversial president in American history, the world was slammed by a pandemic, lockdowns, and shortages. Over the last two years, the world's population has learned to live with the new normal, which includes social distancing, medical masks, and staying home. In all this turmoil, it's normal to seek refuge in familiarity and tradition, and the holiday season is the best time to do this.

Over the past six years, it feels like the world has been tackling one crisis after another. Immediately following the 2016 election of the most controversial president in American history, the world was slammed by a pandemic, lockdowns, and shortages. Over the last two years, the world's population has learned to live with the new normal, which includes social distancing, medical masks, and staying home. In all this turmoil, it's normal to seek refuge in familiarity and tradition, and the holiday season is the best time to do this.
The holidays are quickly approaching, which means wreaths, reindeer, and, if you're from a family of impeccable taste, The Griswolds. Since 1989, "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" has become as essential to the holiday as decorated trees, expensive gifts, and that one Mariah Carey song. With its spot-on depiction of childhood joys, adolescent humiliations, and crushed expectations of Yuletide, the John Hughes classic reigns supreme over all other Christmas films and continues to be a big part of many families' celebrations.
