It’s Christmas in a small settlement in French Guiana, one hundred years ago. The Dulay family runs the general store, but as it is barely making a profit, the outlook is bleak.

DIE HARD IS A CHRISTMAS MOVIE Runs Dec. 6-22

DIE HARD IS A CHRISTMAS MOVIE
Know Theatre of Cincinnati
Dec. 6-22
[Over-the-Rhine]

By A.J. Baldwin & Alexx Rouse
Directed by Tatiana Godfrey

Cast: Phineas Clark, Beasley, Alexx Rouse & Andrew Ian Adams

A shot-for-shot remake of the perennial action classic, set inside the suburban home of a family on the brink of collapse.

It’s Christmas Eve and Lane has invited her estranged husband, Mac, back home to provide a “normal Christmas” to their kids. But when Mac picks Die Hard for the family’s movie night, the classic “Is this a Christmas Movie?” debate takes on a life of its own.

It doesn’t take long for an R-rating and a bunch of blood to expose old wounds and rekindle arguments, and Mac and Lane must grapple with what’s appropriate for their family and the holiday. By the time the explosions start, life is mirroring art and soon an office building full of terrorists feels like a much safer room to be in. Rated: PG-13
