The live-action Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas movie is a holiday classic, one that I’ve watched every year since it came out. Now that I’m an adult, I’ve been able to relate to the Grinch a little bit more as I get older. I’m still in the cave-dwelling, talking to his dog, and existing as a grouchy recluse phase, so maybe one day I’ll have his redemptive ending and come out of my room for more than a few minutes at a time.
