I was five years old and living in New Jersey when the movie first came out and I remember seeing it at a theatre in Ramsey after seeing countless commercials for it. "The Christmas That Almost Wasn't" will always be a memorable movie to me, since it's the first movie I remember seeing with my parents and every time I see it, it brings back memories of watching "Birthday House" every morning with Paul Tripp, who acted, wrote the script and songs for the movie. I also remember seeing in the movie, Tripp's wife, Ruth Enders and the host of the local kids show at that time "Wonderama" Sonny Fox as Mr. Prim. Let's not forget the man who starred and directed, Rossano Brazzi, who played the bad guy Mr. Prune, who tried to evict Santa from the North Pole and stop Christmas. Fortunately, the children of the world came to the rescue to save the holiday from being canceled.

Brazzi's portrayal of Prune was outstanding and was among Boris Karloff's portrayal of the Grinch in the cartoon that came out around the same time as the movie. One other thing i remember was Glenn Yarbrough's rendition of the title song.

If you haven't seen this movie, get a date with Santa and buy or rent "The Christmas That Almost Wasn't." It could be your next holiday classic.
