Noël

I saw this Christmas special on television some years back, when I was younger. I haven't seen it again in its entire form since then. I managed to catch part of the ending recently this last holiday season, and it still looked wonderful to me. Unfortunately, I could not catch the whole thing a second time, but I still remember the movie as being fun, lovable, and cute for a children's film. It is about a cheerful Christmas ornament named Noel who has a happy feeling inside of him, and unlike other Christmas ornaments, he loves Christmas. Over many years, he befriends the many Christmas trees, the children who live in his home, and so on. It's a very nice and original idea that played itself out well. Bottom line, even if the movie doesn't appeal all that much to the older audience members, it appealed very well to at least one young child. And that was what it was meant to do. I still long to see it again.

Noel tells the tale of Christmas peace and magic that spanned 60 years (1932-1992) and he never lost his warmth.

Yet, it also tells how times change over the years-with glimpses of sadness as that is what time does. Despite the aging and and abandonment, Noel's merriment only grew-something that is rare as time chips away our own happiness.

Possibly the best Christmas movie of our time. Includes a beautiful meaning with a awesome main character that you will actually love. It expresses the meaning of Christmas and how we can come together on such a fun day with friends and family. Noel is a great and diverse character who is extremely loveable and dynamic he is the cutest bean. Myself, Dev dog and lyssleberry all believe this is the best movie hands down. Many would agree that Noel is the heart and soul of my passion and love for Christmas.

I give it an 8 because I really can't remember it that much, but I remember that I loved this movie. It's such a great kid/family movie. I saw it when I was much younger and truly wish to see it again. Unfortunately, I haven't really seen it on T.V. when they play the Christmas movies (and this movie is so much better than half the ones they play)!! The main character, Noel, is such a sweet character that basically understands the true meaning of Christmas and spreads it to those that do not feel that special feeling inside anymore. I'm probably going to grab this one on Amazon or something, just because I haven't found it on T.V. Anyway, it's a feel good movie. Just really cute! =)

This movie is such underappreciated, it should be a classic.

It is one of those movies that make you feel a whole gamut of feelings in the short 20 something minutes it lasts.

The movie is such a sweet movie, it has its cute start, its "Ugh, how annoying are the other characters" moment, lots of joyous moments in such a short span, moments that bring back memories of your childhood's Christmas, make you all nostalgic and bring both a smile and a tear to your face.

Then comes heartbreak, never put better by the movie, makes you miss those that are gone, and realize how short life is and that we need to enjoy it as much as we can while we can.

Then the "rebirth" of happiness, and a great end message.

All in all this should be as much a classic as the grinch cartoon.
