When Clark is locked in the attic watching the old Christmas videos....near the end you see a young uncle Lewis (old jerk who sets Clarks tree on fire) smoking a cigar.....

It appeared to me that they went through quite a few efforts to make him look young for that short 2 second shot in that black and white video.....i didn't take the time to look in detail at other people to see if they did the same thing, but I've watched this movie for years and it just jumped out at me

I watched that movie for years before I noticed that Ellen is cupping Clark's genitals during the cop scene.

^Me too. Then she takes her hand off to shake hands and puts it back. Hahaa. That movie is greatness.

It's not new. That's been there for decades.

That's a favorite during Christmas.

The woman who plays his mother is also in that video, with long dark hair instead of short grey hair.

One thing I didn't notice until approximately the 200th viewing was what Ellen does when they're eating the dried up turkey. As the camera pans around the table you see Clark almost choke on his bite of turkey, then Ellen flings hers off her fork so it flies off behind her at the last second. Then she puts the fork in her mouth and pretends to chew.

how did y'all watch that movie that many times before noticing the ball-cupping and the food-flinging? i watched it for the first time recently and those are the main gags of their respective scenes

Yeah, I can't believe those were not noticed in first viewing.

Maybe they had the volume down that time.

The ball cupping is pretty blatant. IMO the food flinging is much more subtle and there is a whole lot more going on in that scene with the camera spinning around the table.

Unless you're cupping your own balls, yea, that's pretty blatant.

I guess I was getting "cupped" myself the first 200 times I saw that scene and didn't notice.

Another thing to notice is Cousin Eddie's turtleneck when he's talking with Clark in the living room about his kid's career in carnival.

In the scene where Clark and Ellen are in bed together after putting the tree up, on Blu ray at least, you can definitely see some nip through Beverly D'Angelo's night gown.

You can also see cousin Eddie's hog pretty clearly through his pants as he and Clark walk through Walmart.
