I put this in this category because it applies to both A Christmas Story and My Summer Story/It Runs in the Family... The director of both films, Bob Clark, and his son Ariel were killed in a car crash early today on the Pacific Coast Highway. L.A. Times: http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/celebrity/la-ex-crash4mar04,1,4759212.story?coll=la-headlines-entnews&track=crosspromo "Film director Robert Clark and his son Ariel were killed in an early morning collision along a stretch of Pacific Coast Highway in Pacific Palisades, authorities said. Clark directed the classic holiday film "A Christmas Story" in 1983 and was also the producer of the "Porkys" films, along with about two dozen other features. "The crash, which occurred about 2:30 a.m., left the highway closed between Temescal Canyon Road and West Sunset Boulevard until 10:40 a.m., while police investigated at the scene, said Kevin Maiberger, a spokesman for the Los Angeles Police Department. Police said Clark, 67, and his son, who was 22, were found dead at the scene in the silver Infiniti." 3
