Sparky and I watched another Christmas movie. Die Hard is so good, that we also watched the corresponding episode of The Movies That Made Us. It was a leap of faith to take Bruce Willis from Moonlighting and turn him into John McClane, but not such a big leap since everyone else turned down the role. Frank Sinatra had right of first refusal, but he was too old and rich to do it. Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Clint Eastwood, and a bunch of other actors wouldn’t go for it.
For the science deniers who can’t accept that Die Hard is a Christmas movie, here is definitive proof.
