The Gift of Love: A Christmas Story (1983)
Personal feelings upon viewing

The Gift of Love: A Christmas Story, is one of the best "Holiday" movies I've ever seen.
Polly Holiday brought tears when she enacted the "Christmas Ghost" scene. (I had an Aunt Min)
Trust me... this made-for-TV movie is not a usual one. I wish it would be "re-done" for DVD. It's a lost treasure. A real "total box of Kleenex" film. However, that does mean that it does not have a message and that it is not uplifting. Lee Remick wonderful and beautiful in this film. Guest starring Angela Lansbury, and Polly Holiday are as good as it gets.
I recorded the film, but cannot seem to find it among all my video tapes. I'll keep looking.
