In the cheery world of Whoville lies a fantastical yet heartfelt story that follows a witty mess of a grump who’s morals aren’t up to par, especially during the holiday season. First seen as a book in 1957, Dr. Seuss’s whimsical tale, “How the Grinch Stole Christmas,” has been retold many times, notably in a 2000 live action film directed by Ron Howard and starring Jim Carrey.
When it comes to “the…the…the… the Grinch,” Carrey’s portrayal of the green, grotesque Who is unlike any other. His big, physical performance alongside the clever writing makes for a fun holiday favorite. The live-action film is fun to experience with this story because the quirky and imaginative town has now come to life!
Though this Christmas classic never fails to make you snort laughing, it also warms your heart. The Grinch loathes how blissful the town is and devises a plan to make them just as miserable as he is. When he finally finds out the truth behind the town’s unwithered kindness and joy, the Grinch’s small heart grows three sizes.
