The comic misadventures of the beleaguered Griswold family continue in the third and most successful entry in the Vacation film series. This time America's most dedicated dad, Clark Griswold (Chevy Chase), is determined to stay at home to create "the most fun-filled old fashioned family Christmas ever" -- but life has a particular way of throwing wet logs on the Griswold family fire. Make merry with Chase, Beverly D'Angelo, Randy Quaid and an ensemble of comedy favorites (look for Emmy and Golden Globe-winner Julia Louis-Dreyfus from TV's Seinfeld in a supporting role). Written by John Hughes (Home Alone series).
