Bad Santa – (2003)
Director: Terry Zwigoff
Starring: Billy Bob Thornton, Tony Cox, Brett Kelly, Lauren Graham, Bernie Mac, John Ritter
The movie is…so funny. Santa: we all know him, right? Here he’s a swearing, hard-drinking, bullying, chain-smoking, thief. But he’s more loveable than ever. Billy Bob Thornton was born to play this white trash, a man from the other side of the tracks who is slowly won over, by the wierdest, plumpest, little boy – the Kid. If he adopts the Christmas spirit it’s largely in self-defense, making this perfect viewing for those who consider themselves immune to the season.
