In 'A Christmas Story', Darren McGavin's character is a bit gruff but I don't recall any profanity. The movie is set in a family context in the 1940s. The language used is more of the everyday, old - fashioned kind that was typical of that era. It focuses more on the humor of the family's Christmas experiences rather than using strong language.
At 61 years old when 'A Christmas Story' was made, Darren McGavin's age was a significant factor in his role. Older actors often bring a different kind of presence. In this case, his age allowed him to play a father who had seen a lot in life. He could show the weariness of a man dealing with family and work, yet also the joy that comes with the holiday season. His age - earned wisdom and world - weariness were reflected in his performance, making his character more believable and relatable to audiences, especially those who had parents of a similar age.
His age added a sense of authority. Being 61 at the time, he could play the father figure convincingly.
