    Great Movie

    I just watched this on CMT's Cowboy Cool Theater, and I love it! It really is a classic. Very meaningful and not over commercial. I recommend it to all! Dolly Parton and Lee Marvin give great performances, and the kids are great too, they aren't all cutesy like in other Christmas movies.

    A Perfect Family Christmas Movie

    I watched this film for the first time on the Hallmark Channel last week and it is now a permanent fixture in my video collection, please please bring it out on DVD in the UK. As always Dolly Parton's warmth shines through, making this a great family film. Yes the acting is not tops but the simple sets, the innocence of the kids and the general easy going story makes it perfect. An added bonus is Dolly's singing, it is straight from the heart and gives you the feeling of watching a part of Dolly's childhood. Yes as usual she is done up to the nines and wanders around the Smoky Mountains in her high heels but that is part of the charm and whimsy of Dolly and this film, just take it for what it is, "ENTERTAINMENT" that all the family can watch and feel a part of . A Great Christmas family country classic leaving you feeling the warmth of Christmas!!

    Smokey mountain Christmas-greatest Christmas movie of all time

    I had just turned 4 when this movie was first released and I remember watching it at least 50 times since, but sure it has been more! I absolutely loved this warm Christmas story and how it brought them all together like a real family! Was so great! I am very grateful to have had the privilege of sharing such a movie in my lifetime and plan to share this movie with my own son time and again! You just don't see movies like that made anymore. Such a shame! It shows how love and trust in any family, blood or not, takes some time and patience. But is well worth it all in the end! Also it's just all around a great family movie for any age. As I had said before, I loved it when I was a kid and am planning to share it with my own kids as time goes on. I recommend to anyone looking for something that the whole family can enjoy this holiday to watch A Smoky Mountian Christmas! It's sure to warm your heart and put a smile on your face! So when you're looking for the right movie this Christmas season, don't forget to run out and pick up your copy! Enjoy and happy holidays!

    Great Movie from my Chidlhood

    This is one of my favorite movies from growing up. I always thought that this movie had a lot of the real Dolly in it, since she plays a famous country singer who wants to get out of the limelight and get back to her country roots to have some peace to herself. I loved her interaction with the kids and I used to watch this with my mom. There is also so great music in it and a lot of humor. This movie also has so really beautiful scenery and I believe it was shot on location. There is a bit of weirdness with the villain and her relationship with Dolly in the movie, but otherwise it is great. The chemistry between the male lead and Dolly is good also. This needs to be on DVD!

    The best movie for christmas I have ever seen!!!

    I think that movie shows the real meaning of Christmas. I think the other movies like Home Alone and the second ones show a very bad maening for kids and how Christmas should be spent. I like the fact that they use the kids to portray the warmth and the feeling of Christmas.
