Last year, when I initially embraced marking time and celebrating all holidays with movies, there were many holidays that I didn’t even consider. Memorial Day was one of those, along with a small handful of others that I plan to get to this year.

I have experienced the popular Memorial Day family barbecue, and I have also undertaken a road trip to the cemetery where my grandmother, grandfather, and great-grandmother are buried. Considering the sweltering heat in Florida by the end of May, both of these activities require a certain amount of psyching myself up each year.

While I will remember to honor the soldiers who have died for my country this Memorial Day, I am happily going to stay out of the hot Florida weather and watch Memorial Valley Massacre (1989), which was originally planned for release as Memorial Day.

And of course, I will also watch What Have We Learned, Charlie Brown? , because Charlie Brown brings the holidays, no matter what holiday.
