This film was reviewed by Dr. Barry Hummel of QDREF on January 21, 2012.  

Additional Comments:  "Two of the film's stars, Beverly D'Angelo and Randy Quaid, were both seen smoking.  But the big winner was Bill Hickey as Uncle Louis, who not only smoked a cigar in most of his scenes, but he managed to set fire to the Christmas tree and leaking sewer gas.  While this certainly demonstrated the negative impacts of smoking, it was balanced by the fact that he managed to smoke around four young children."
