Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

Limerculer A waste of 90 minutes of my life

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

darbski **SPOILERS** This is a small thing, and I'm almost sorry to think that I'd complain. However, complain I must, don't you know? The movie had three of my favorite actresses, of course Loretta Young is beautiful and charming as always (even when she plays a bad girl, she's charming), Sara Haden, and the delightful Elsa Lanchester. Niven obviously has a stick up his British bum, and Cary Grant simply can't make a mistake in this story. Being an angel, he better not. Monty Wooley is just as he is supposed to be, and all's right with everything else. The only problem I have, and keep in mind several small miracles, is that on Christmas Eve, the Bishop and his wife don't take their daughter to services with them. This is not only ridiculous, it's just insupportable. Everything else, no problems at all; a terrific movie. The end, without their beloved daughter? Sorry.. a 9.

Kirpianuscus one of films contemporary with the public from each generation. because it is more tan a classic, a good film, a lovely story or work of brilliant actors and inspired director. it is a gift. because its magic power of seduction covers the values who are transmitted decade by decade. sure, Loretta Young, David Niven, especially Cary Grant are masters of a perfect show who mix faith , family, love, need to discover the other in profound manner and to define yourself to you. but not only the scene of dance on ice, the dialogues or the atmosphere are important in its case. the magic is result of a wise science to propose a lesson . a simple one. about feelings, needs and happiness. the recipes is the same in each period. this small details is the obstacle to define it as Christmas movie. and to see it. again and again.

Mikey I love this film! I usually watch this about 3 or 4 times during the Christmas season as it's in my rotation with Home for the Holidays, It's a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street, One Magic Christmas, If You Believe, Bell, Book, and Candle, A Diva's Christmas Carol, and The Family Stone. My roommates hate me during this time of year! I like to think there are people out there that believe in helping others unselfishly. I strive to be that kind of person.I like seeing some of the other character actors such as Elsa Lanchester who is in Bell Book and Candle, and Sara Haden who I only knew from the Shirley Temple movie Poor Little Rich Girl. Oh and two of the children from It's a Wonderful Life...Zuzu and young Harry Bailey. Definitely watch this one! I think it's way better than the remake, although Denzel and Whitney are great!

Dimitri44 Rather than overwork the phrase Motion Picture, the word Film can be most appropriate here. Without offending anyone's philosophical sensibilities, could this film have been motivated by an entity out there, somewhere, such that the people in Hollywood created something intended to be singularly unique? For example, consider what the Director of this film did when he exactly provided for us the scene, frame by frame, when Cary Grant presents to us the Twenty-Third Psalm.Next, many may have also noticed that during the Golden Age, the cast for several films was selected in only one way that could have been possible. For example, can you imagine the roles in this film performed by anyone else other than Cary Grant, Loretta Young, David Niven, Monty Woolley, and James Gleason? Concluding, you will know what the word inspiration means after this film instills your inner self with a feeling of complete, the kind words here are now almost endless.
