In all honesty, Trading Places is an outstanding movie.

It works on so many different levels. Comedy, drama, morality play…indeed, to some extent, I could argue that Winthorpe and Valentine are the first Deplorables, and Duke & Duke are the current Democrat party.

Die Hard is (just) an action film. But it’s a good one, and it works in that box.

Merry Christmas.

“Trading Places is an outstanding movie.”

It really is! And I agree with whoever said Dan Ackroyd eating the fish is hilarious! And it’s also great because they never made a Trading Places 2, etc.
