Where to watch How the Grinch Stole Christmas

It’s that time of year again where people are scrambling to find the right gifts for everyone and make sure their festive experience this year eclipses all the rest. Finding the right thing to watch to get into the yuletide spirit can be a less than ideal task with all the options available.

How The Grinch Stole Christmas is based on the infamous children’s book telling the story of a mean old Grinch who attempts to steal Christmas from the pleasant village near him by taking all of their gifts and decorations while they sleep on Christmas Eve. The Ron Howard directed holiday flick made some exciting additions to the storyline, making it a must-watch affair for fans of all ages. The backstory of The Grinch has been brilliantly tweaked for the cinematic endeavor, and Cindy Lou, Who played by Pretty Reckless frontwoman Taylor Momsen at a much young age, was switched to a main character as opposed to the supporting role in the literature and made for TV special.

Also in the lineup is Jeffery Tambor, Christine Baranski, Bill Irwin, and Molly Shannon. Sir Anthony Hopkins does a magnificent job as the movie’s narrator.

The film remains a classic for so many, and Jim Carrey gives a game-changing performance that should be revered as a career-best for the illustrious actor. How the Grinch Stole Christmas also received three Academy Award nominations, including a win for Best Makeup, and currently is one of the highest-grossing Christmas movies of all-time. There is no shortage of reasons to check out this fantastic motion picture if available on Netflix.
