Christmas With the Kranks – A Holiday Story

Christmas with the Kranks (based on John Grisham’s novel) is an entertaining holiday film starring Tim Allen and Jamie Lee Curtis also known adult and Mandy. The famous actors play a happily married couple, Luther and Nora Krank, who choose to skip Christmas. Instead they celebrate a new year with their friends.

But when Christmas time comes back around, they are shocked at the anti-clerical policies of their church and their family becomes disenchanted as the whole neighborhood is against them. One night a firestorm rages through the neighborhood and a plane crashes nearby, killing everyone on board except for the Kranks. Out of grief and anger, they decide to throw a huge party to celebrate their victory over their enemies.

It seems that the neighborhood is celebrating this victory as much as the Kranks. They invite all of their friends to the big Christmas bash, and everyone gathers in the restaurant area where they all eat Christmas dinner together. When dinner is served, a janitorial man comes by with a box containing three small stuffed penguins. These penguins promptly go to the top of everyone’s list as they’re the latest Christmas toys coming home with this year’s Christmas movies.
