On this episode of the Video Archives Podcast Quentin Tarantino and Roger Avary unpack the ornaments to decorate The Christmas Tree. Quentin and Roger share their perspectives watching this turgid tearjerker as fathers of sons, the cinematic moments they’ve never seen before, and Roger’s personal connection to Terrence Young.
Next up — we better get to sleep and put out the milk and cookies, because Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town! In this Rankin / Bass Christmas Classic, postman S.D. Kluger — voiced by Fred Astaire — answers some of the most important questions about Santa Claus himself. Through song and dance we meet colorful characters voiced by Mickey Rooney, Keenan Wynn, Paul Frees, Robie Lester, and Joan Gardner, and learn the true meaning of Christmas.
Merry Christmas Eve, everyone!
