Way back in 1983, my younger daughter's school was chosen as a key element in the filming of the MGM/UA production of the movie, A Christmas Story. My daughter was picked as an extra. All but about a half-second of her appearance in the playground as the bell rings after the infamous flag pole scene was cut from the final edit. The movie is still good, a funny, irreverent, holiday-themed romp, worth watching. The official trailer is linked below.
