In A Christmas Story, the persistence of Ralphie to receive a Red Ryder BB gun turns into the center of the holiday. As soon as he finally gets his hands on it, after numerous hints and setbacks, is full of triumph and vulnerability, quickly, his excitement turns to fear as he shoots himself in the eye accidentally. The scene simply captures the innocence and predictability of Christmases when a child is young, where it all happens but not in the most expected way. It is a bittersweet reminder of growing up.
