I always watch it at least once every Christmas. I saw it when it originally came out in the theaters and I don't think I have ever laughed harder in my life.
LOL, years before that movie came out, one Thanksgiving when I was still living in Arizona, we (my parents and brother) were driving on residential streets over to visit someone. The streets were absolutely empty - it was mid-afternoon, prime Thanksgiving dinner time. When what should we see? Burford! He may well have been the only Irish setter in town - very distinctive. Everyone in that neighborhood knew Burford.
Burford was running hell bent for leather down the street with a cooked Thanksgiving turkey in his mouth. (He ran right by our car - alongside for a moment as my dad was at a stop sign - so we got a good glimpse of the turkey and it was clear it had been cooked.
