Episode 128: National Lampoon's European Vacation
Manage episode 209328483 series 1253144
In honor of Sweetie's real life European vacation, we watched National Lampoon's European Vacation, which is actually our first Chevy Chase film of the bunch! From 1985 and directed by one of our favs Amy Heckerling, European Vacation takes the notorious Griswold's on a Euro adventure after they accidentally win the grand prize on The Pig and the Poke game show! That grand prize turns out to be an all expenses paid trip to London, Paris, Germany and Rome! This movie is whacky with a capital W and a fantastic screwball comedy with some hilarious only in the 80s moments. We'll talk about our first memory of the film (boobs, boobs, and more boobs), how much Rusty and Audrey creep us out, how this film is just really a bunch of stereotypes strung together into one hot but hilarious mess, and talk about some of our favorite family vacations in the good ole Dumas minivan.
