Road Trip for Ralphie

A Christmas Story Documentary

Tyler and Jordie Schwartz grew up loving the movie A Christmas Story. Although they didn't know each other as kids, the couple always shared the same annual anticipation of waiting for the movie to air on television. Once they finally met, they were delighted to discover their mutual admiration for the classic Christmas movie.

Some time later, they discovered that entrepreneur Brian Jones had purchased Ralphie's house in Cleveland, and was restoring it to its movie grandeur. Knowing that much of the movie was also filmed near where they live in Canada, they hatched a plan to visit all the locations used in the movie to see what they look like today. But first they had to find out the locations of the locations!

During an adventure spanning two years and two countries, they uncovered forgotten facts, discovered little-known locations and recovered long-lost memorabilia. Join the filmmakers as they visit more than 15 locations in Canada and Cleveland to learn amazing trivia about the movie and the people who made it. Also included are rare documents and interviews from crew members in Cleveland and Toronto who worked on the film back in 1983.
