How the Grinch stole Christmas
The Ron Howard movie. It's been a while since I've seen it, or at least it feels like it more so then our usual holiday movie hit list. I think a lot of people didn't give this film the appreciation for all its magnificent hard work and amazing realistic fantasy effects. I mean, this movie REALLY brought Dr Seuss world to life.
The nose make up on the Whos was especially amazing, its hard to even tell its a prosthetic for half the actors. Jim Carrey really played a great Grinch, he gave him a life, a personality, and an identity that helped the movie drift out of its occasional sappy kid messages. I particularly loved seeing the "You're a mean one Mr, Grinch" musical number LIVE.
