TravelerHaha yes! Many Americans claim it as their favorite movie Jim also loves it. Emmett loves it when he was younger (and still likes it), but we watched it every year on his birthday for 10+ years...so he has seen it a lot! We meant to show it to Sieger, but never got around to it. I'm guessing he won't appreciate it as an adult watching it for the first time. We all grew up watching and loving it! My sister posted that my niece was so jealous, and would have made her kids wear matching outfits 😂. That's what they do in the movie...they all wear clothes made out of curtains!
