Truly a classic film. Eddie and Akroyd were terrific in it.
Jamie Lee Curtis in her younger days always was a good bet, especially topless.
The story was a terrific rags to riches with a riches to rags scenario mixed in. The idea really worked.
I do not consider it a Christmas film though. The only thing that pertains to that is the time of the year the film is set in. Instead, it is a Wall Street/wealth film that deals with what is important in life.
