Frank Shirley in National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (1989)
Whenever we check in with the latest Griswold family adventure, it's usually patriarch Clark (Chevy Chase) who's responsible for the mayhem and disappointment. In this Christmas edition of the comedy franchise, Clark's boss Frank Shirley (Brian Doyle-Murray) is at the root of the problem: Clark needs a seasonal bonus in order to install a long-desired swimming pool, but the only thing that comes in the mail from Frank is a free membership for a Jelly of the Month Club. Oh, the humanity!
