National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation

It’s Christmastime, and the Griswolds are preparing for a family seasonal celebration. But things never run smoothly for Clark, his wife Ellen, and their two kids. Clark’s continual bad luck is worsened by his obnoxious family guests, but he manages to keep going, knowing that his Christmas bonus is due soon.

Tom Ackerman, ASC, who teaches Cinematography at the University of North Carolina School of the Arts School of Filmmaking and served as director of photography on the set of “Christmas Vacation” will be on hand for a discussion following the screening.
