Christmas in Pop Culture
Question 1:
Rejecting materialism, the characters in this 1965 animated holiday television special choose to decorate an undersized, but real Christmas tree instead of an artificial one made of aluminum.
Before its release, network executives did not believe the show would do well due to its slow pacing, simple animation style and lack of a laugh track. However, the special was lauded upon release, and has since become an annual classic.
Question 2:
A 1997 episode of the television show Seinfeld popularized this annual holiday that is celebrated as an alternative to Christmas.
Festivus was originally created by the writer Daniel O'Keefe in the 1960s. His son would later write the Seinfeld episode The Strike in which the celebration of Festivus played a major role in the plot.
Question 3:
In Miracle on 34th Street (1947), "Kris Kringle" works as a Santa Claus at this famous New York City store.
Despite the movie's uplifting theme, the powerful Catholic Legion of Decency rated the film "morally objectionable in part" because Maureen O'Hara’s character is a divorced mother.
Question 4:
An annual holiday staple on David Letterman's light night talk show was this singer's performance of "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)".
Upon its release in 1963, the song was originally not a commercial success. However, largely due to Love's annual televised performance, it has become a Christmas standard. In all, Love sang the song 21 times starting in 1986.
Question 5:
Haddon Sundblom is best remembered today for his paintings of Santa Claus which were used to advertise this American commercial product.
Starting in 1931, Sundblom's portraits of Santa Claus over the next thirty-three years helped create the modern image of Santa. He always painted Santa in a red suit, establishing that link in popular culture.
