  • The Merrick Library 2279 South Merrick Avenue Merrick, NY, 11566 United States (map)

This is the ORIGINAL and still the most entertaining presentation of the film and discussion brought to Long Island. “You’ll shoot your eye out!” Who didn't experience the same hopes and dreams as Ralphie with the coming of the biggest day of the year in a child's life? This interactive Power Point Presentation takes you behind the scenes in the making of the film, short biographies of the stars, filming locations, the history of Ralphie's house used in the film, lost scenes and even locations that you can visit today! This presentation includes holiday music of the era and a memorabilia display of film items, books, ads, autographs and includes the most horrible soap ever made to wash out a kid’s mouth! (Actual 1930's Lifebuoy soap is on hand to experience! No tasting please!) A great film for all ages that will have you reliving your own childhood experiences as you laugh along with Ralphie!
