Perfect

This is runs under an hour. It is a short story about people struggling for various reasons during Christmas time.

This film brings to life a famous Norman Rockwell painting. Samuel Cavanaugh, a Scrooge like character, revisits the frozen pond each year to relive the happier moments in his life. Michael Grant is an unhappy young boy attempting to skate with his dad's over-sized skates, who was missing in action in Korea. Their paths cross several times as our story unfolds. Its a heartwarming Christmas tale.

The story is a tad predictable but the execution is flawless. It also puts you in shoes of certain people in the story that helps make this Christmas Story well worth watching.

Gather your family and watch this together!

Good But Flawed

The high ratings of this movie got me interest so I had to watch. The first 10 minutes however are very clumsy. It seems that this directed and edited by a novice. However I am glad I stuck with it. Its high ratings are deserved.

The story is about 2 children. A brother and a sister. It's World War II and there dad is off. The children and their mother are missing him.

Now the children are practicing to be in the annual Christmas Pageant that their church puts on. The girl however steels the angel. SHe means no harm and will bring it back. She loves this angel because she doesn't have a doll to play with.

She breaks the angel and that sets off a chain of events that leads to a very happy ending.

Watch it with your children. It is under an hour. It is well made but the first 10 minutes are rough!

Skip this Christmas Movie

I watched based on the title and being a Rockwell fan I figured it would be good. Iwas wrong. The lighting is trying too hard to look "old". The acting is middle school drama club level. It is ashame becuase with better writing, director, and acting it could be a movie to pull out every year.

It is a story of a lonely boy who is missing his father who is fighting in Korea. He befriends a grumpy older man. It comes with a bully who steals the main character's skates but sees the error of his ways and returns them. No one is a real villain as no one is a hero. The acting, as I said is bad. Usually it can be made up with a good kid actor, but it is not. The clothes don't match the time period. The whole thing is overlaid in sepia lighting to look "old" it just adds to the confusion of the story. Skip this Christmas Movie.

Okay for kids perhaps

In the pantheon of holiday productions, this may be acceptable, however in the context of all film and television it is sub-par. The story is not well written, much of the acting is at high-school play level, the fashion does not fit the period and, as a result, you become overly aware of it as a production instead of a story. No doubt the producer(s) were doing the best they had with the resources available but the whole thing misses its target.
