The Grinch

The Grinch: "All the Whos down in Who-ville liked Christmas a lot, but the Grinch, who lived just north of Who-ville, DID NOT!" These immortal words, though not used in the movie, are made clear anyway. The Grinch hates Christmas and lives away from Who-ville on Mount Crumpit. He eats nothing but their garbage and when two Whos attempt to prank him, he goes down to Who-ville and terrorizes the heck out of everyone. When in the post office, Cindy Lou Who, who is having doubts about Christmas being about presents, gets stuck in a mail sorter, the Grinch saves her. Though he makes the excuse that he only did it to make sure she was "properly packed," Cindy Lou still thinks that there may be some good in the Grinch, so she interviews a bunch of people. During some of the interviews, there are flashbacks that reveal that the reason the Grinch departed Who-ville in the first place was because he was being bullied.
