Yes Virginia, There Is a Santa Claus

Very uplifting, Good Holiday Cheer! Everyone should see it if they can. Wish I could find a place to purchase this film for my collection. Great performances given by all cast members. Hope for humanity, and hope for our families. This film helps to lift my spirits and makes me remember just what is important in our lives. This movie is about a reporter who has lost his drive, now he could lose his job. A family struggles very hard to make it in the world (just like now for some). Watch Charles Bronson and Richard Thomas in there unforgettable roles as they give us a way to look at things all over again.(If your into Christmas Movies you should also try to see The Little Match Girl, Rudy from the Cosbys makes this film extra special)

Saw this on tv last night ... and actually, missed quite some parts of it as i switched to that channel by accident but i have to admit as an atheist who despises formal religions thus barely a superstitious person if ever, i just liked this not so well known movie of Charles Bronson with some direct hints at both religion as well as superstition, albeit done in such a 'logical' way it not only doesn't harm the viewer imo, it actually makes you welcome this kind of approach to such otherwise unacceptable topics ...

here, Charles Bronson acts in a role that's totally new to me considering he's almost always been seen in violent action movies appearing as a villain or a good, yet tough man ... but now he's exactly the opposite: depressed, mild, sentimental, suicidal even! and he has done a really good job at that, worthy of a nomination, which, rather curiously, apparently neither him nor the movie itself have received ...

the movie itself has a rather sad yet at the same time live and hopeful tone to it ... and i'm so glad i saw this plain, underrated, not very famous although really sensational Christmas-y movie, the likes of which are many of course but really good ones are surely rare ...

long story short, i don't think i'll ever forget this movie, especially because of Charles Bronson's really fine acting in a role not quite befitting him that came almost as a surprise to me ...

I have not seen this movie in several years and am truly saddened that I haven't. It has to be one of the best Christmas movies I have ever seen. As far as I am concerned, it rates right up there with all the Christmas classics and should be shown every year.

This was the best Christmas movie ever made,at least in my opinion. Great actors and great acting. Made the whole story seem quite real. They could not have chosen a better actor than Charles Bronson for the part of the reporter who writes the fateful editorial that will live forever in time and in our hearts.

It would be difficult to say at this point if it were Richard Thomas or Charles Bronson who carried this timeless beauty so successfully to it's moving conclusion, but all performances were top notch. This movie NEEDS to be released to all for the upcoming Christmas season as it would quickly become a classic. These are the Christmas lessons we all try to teach the young this time of year and movies like this one are needed to do it so nicely. I hope to see this one on the DVD new release list soon!
