When I first saw Die Hard in the theater in the summer of 1988. It was sunny and hot outside so sitting a cool theater with popcorn and a drink was a great way to enjoy the holidays? I was not really that surprised myself as I had previously read the book that the movie is based on.
I felt it was just an action story that takes place at Christmas , over the years it has been given the title of the Best Action Movie of All Time --many sources-
I would have to agree with that statement.
The argument still arises to this day.
Bruce Willis is quoted at the Comedy Central roast that Die Hard is not a Christmas movie but the screenwriter Steven E. de Souza documented his case in this :
Now 20th Century Fox has got into the debate as well by releasing a Christmas trailer for the film!
They even gave the film it's own Christmas title
"Die Hard | The Greatest Christmas Story | 20th Century FOX"
Thank you for reading this
Sincerely
Anthony Nadeau
