La Lettre au père Noël

Ever since I watched "The Crow - Salvation" I've been a fan of Eric Mabius' acting as his portrayal of a "Crow" was one of my favourite, second to Brandon Lee.

I've not seen him in anything for quite a while, then I saw he was in this movie called Lost Letter Mysteries for Xmas (English Title). And what a joy it was.

In his role as Oliver O'Toole, he plays a stoic, straight-laced, upright, and honourable postal worker, who thinks nothing of going the extra mile to do the job right.

I loved the idea of a team of postal workers sorting through undelivered or undeliverable letters with the purpose of giving help. Even though, I now know, this is part of a series this Christmas episode works well by itself. It's well written and the direction is carried out well and progresses the story and cast at a steady pace.

After seeing this I will be looking at getting the series on DVD.

First off, this series is so strong in connection and love. This one hits just a little more.straight to the heart! I love that it talks straight about Jesus! It's so sweet and caring. I actually cried watching this one. Perfect casting!

A wondrful Christmas story from the Postables, a quirky, lovable division of the Denver Post Office Dead Letter Office. The Postables deliver, regardless of obstacles. And this Christmas they face quite a few: a despertely ill, pregnant mother; a frightened little girl; a mysterious supervisor; and, as always in the Postable films, their own fears and disappointments built up over the years. Yeah, it's a tear jerker. And a perfect Christmas presemt!

This is a nice Christmas story with a bit of heartache but with a lot more heart. There is a little girl who writes to God to help her mother who is in the hospital. The team members of the Lost Letters comprised of team leader Oliver (Eric Mabius), Shane (Kristin Booth), Rita (Yan-Kay Crystal Lowe), and Norman (Geoff Gustafson) take the weathered and worn letter addressed to God and so they start their magic and commence finding this little girl who wrote this mystery letter asking for God's intervention.

While in the process of finding who the little girl is and more importantly where this little girl is, the team is feeling in the Christmas spirit except for Shane. All four members have some personal feelings around Christmas that they eventually share with each other, and they are touching and heartfelt stories, especially Oliver's childhood Christmas story.

If you believe in the magic of Christmas, and the spirit of (any) religion, than you will most likely enjoy this feature film in the Signed, Sealed and Delivery series. I give it a 7 out of 10 IMDB rating.

We have just watched this program for the first time and could not be more pleased. The entire production is first class, as is the message. It is not possible for any warm-blooded being to not be moved by the spiritual encouragement which is at the heart of this story. We look forward to more SS&D movies. These have proven to be interesting, intelligent and reliably family-friendly entertainment.
