If you enjoy sentimental Christmas family movies, this is one to watch. For all ages, for kids from 1- 92 😉 A younger Sam Elliot and Cloris Leachman are very convincing in their roles as father and reclusive widow. I watched this movie on the Hallmark Channel many years ago and loved it. Was looking on Ebay at Xmas movies and had to purchase one for my collection. Was a great deal and brand new. Recommend
I have this movie on VHS, after reading some of the reviews, it was said that some parts have been left out, such as the scenes with the little girls Aunt picking out a dress for her for the Christmas Program at school. I haven't reviewed this movie as of yet, and am hoping that the review I read about the missing scenes it's true. When going from a VHS to a DVD, there really is no reason to cut scenes on anything. Most people get the movie in DVD form due to the fact that it isn't always possible to use a VHS machine anymore, or find one to buy, with that combination, they are extremely hard to find. So I'm hoping that this movie hasn't be altered in any way as Cutting scenes..I'll be extremely sad, and Leary about worrying that that may be an outcome for another beloved movie.
Classic Holiday Movie [ should be an integral part of all holiday movie collections ]
Christmas classic - However, I am a bit biased also because a lot of the movies was centered in my area of New Buffalo MI, Three Oaks MI, LaPorte IN. Wonderful, heartfelt acting by all,
A wonderful movie that my grandchildren and their friends love to watch over and over. It is a nice movie for children to watch at Christmas, but also any time. Adults will enjoy it also.
