| This is one of the best Tracey/Hepburn movies. Even
though the story isn't about Christmas, it is set at Christmas time in the early 1950's
and is whimsically reminiscent of a time when life was simpler. One of the later
Spencer Tracy-Katherine Hepburn matchups, this time pitting efficiency expert--sorry,
that's "methods engineer"--Richard Sumner (Tracy) against TV-network research
whiz Bunny Watson (Hepburn) over adding a new-fangled computer--again, sorry, that's
"electronic brain"--to her department, thereby threatening her and her
colleagues' livelihoods. Gig Young appears as Bunny's beau, an ambitious network executive
who strings her along and becomes apoplectic at the idea that she doesn't need him. But as
always, it's Hepburn and Tracy's bickering-flirting that makes this such a winning
enterprise--a lunch date that turns into an interrogation and their sly repartee during a
Christmas party are a couple of the movie's hilarious highlights. Interestingly, what
starts out as something of a technophobic exercise--Hepburn fears for her job, and a
computer goes haywire--takes an abrupt turn (perhaps the IBM product placement had
something to do with that). Briskly scripted by Henry and Phoebe Ephron (Nora and Delia's
parents) from a play by William Marchant. |

| The
First Christmas |
| Features the voices of Angela Lansbury and Cyril Ritchard. A
young shepherd boy's generosity to some nuns of an abbey is miraculously rewarded.
This animated movie has all the feel good aspects of other Christmas classics but not the
fantasy. A person could almost believe it is a story that could have really taken place.
This is some of Angela Lansbury's greatest work. It is often over looked when compared
with other Christmas classics but more than worth watching. |

| The
Gift of Love |
| This is a wonderful Christmas story that is based on The Gift
of the Magi. Made in 1979 and starring Marie Osmond, James Woods, and Timothy
Buttons, this Christmas story shows the power of love between two people. She sells
her beautiful long hair to buy a chain for his watch, and he sells his watch to buy
ribbons for her hair. This story proves that love is more important than any earthly
possession. And that when two people really love each other, nothing else
matters. |
