I like the Bumpass’ dogs. ROFL when they come in and eat the turkey. You Bumpass’!!! The old man was broken hearted because he loved turkey.

That movie is the first DVD I bought (1998). Prior to the DVD, my family always checked the TV schedules for air dates. It is a family tradition to watch it at least once a year between Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Sorry, but this movie is the closest I can come to reliving my childhood. It gives the feel of authentic America in the late ‘40s throught the late ‘50s.
