 Great film January 5, 2009
Pam W (Cincinnati, Ohio)
I saw this movie on PBS and absolutely loved it! This movie will definitely become one on my "Must See" films for the Holidays!
My heart went out to the parents trying to give their children a wonderful Christmas on a very limited budget (something most of today's parents no nothing about.) And I fell in love with the oldest daughter. She was a joy throughout the movie.
While the movie was made on a small budget (nothing at all like "White Christmas," which I also love...who doesn't love Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney? And the costumes are fabulous!) it has a charm of its own and the ending of Mr. Christmas was quite a surprise and perfect.
I recommended this to everyone of all ages.
A new Christmas favorite December 30, 2008

I was lucky enough to catch this gem on my local PBS station shortly before Christmas. After watching it I got online and was happy to see that it is available on DVD. I ordered it and watched it a second time. This is a great Chritmas movie that the whole family can enjoy over and over again anytime. It's not a complicated story. The acting is well done, not over done. I really like the director's commentary and outtakes that were part of the Special Features section.
This is a great movie to have in your library.
SO BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!! December 25, 2007

I just saw this movie. It is so beatiful. I can watch it over and over again. The children and parents are such wonderful actors. I love the sincerity, simplicity, and love they express.I believe those we have written negative reviews have no clue what it means to expereince the financial hardship they were faced with, and efforts some parents make to give their children truly awesome gifts that are priceless.I will recommend this movie. It is excellent.

I haven't seen this. I bought for my mom. She wanted it because it was made in Eureka Springs, AR. She said that it was short and sweet. Not awful, but not great!!
 Nice story, painful acting January 25, 2007

This story, with its nostalgia-evoking setting and charming premise, could make a holiday staple, but the level of acting will not allow that. To be sure, there is a valid point in the assertion of the "A for Effort" reviewer, but on the other hand, no amount of allowance for production constraints can gloss over the reality that the actors cannot convince the viewer of anything more than the fact that they are reciting their lines.
It's a nice story and the costumes and sets are commendable, but it can't sincerely deliver its message when the acting leaves the characters devoid of authenticity.
