    'Christmas Story' Director Clark, Popularizer Of The Phrase 'You'll Shoot Your Eye Out, Kid" Dies In PCH Car Crash


    Sad news: The LAT is reporting that Bob Clark, director of two classic films of the 1980s that profoundly impacted our childhood, A Christmas Story and Porky's, was killed with his son in a car accident on the PCH early this morning. At tragic moments like these, we turn to YouTube for its wealth of instantly available tribute material to celebrate Clark's work; if the above classic scene from A Christmas Story doesn't particularly resonate for you, we offer this alternate clip from Porky's, which still holds up as the most poignant use of the word "tallywacker" in cinematic history.
