Schöne Bescherung (1989)
Der Tannenbaum glänzt im Lichterschein. Die Familie singt im heimeligen Wohnzimmer. Ein Traum von Weihnachten. Aber eben nur ein Traum. Wie in jedem Jahr veranstalten Clark Griswold und seine Familie ein weihnachtliches Truthahnessen. Für diesen Tag hat Clark nur einen Herzenswunsch: Er möchte ein paar besinnliche Stunden verbringen. Das klingt nicht unbescheiden, ist aber angesichts der tolpatschigen Art, mit der er in der Vergangenheit stets für das perfekte Chaos sorgte, ziemlich optimistisch. Nicht nur deshalb sieht seine liebreizende Gattin Ellen dem “Fest der Liebe“ eher mit gedämpfter Vorfreude entgegen. Zu Recht, denn kaum hat Clark im Gewirr der Lichterketten den Durchblick verloren, steht sein abgebrannter Cousin Eddie samt Anhang vor der Tür. Spätestens jetzt kann man die stille Nacht getrost vergessen....
