  • No you aren't.  I have only ever seen a few clips of it.  Never seemed to interest me and I love Christmas movies!

  • The commercials I've seen about it were enough to sway me from torturing myself like that. :P

    From one who has seen it too many times: Don’t fret, you’re not missing much.

  • I doubt that you are the only one, but I am certain that I am only one of a very few that didn't care for the movie.

    It is a great movie, (the original).  I recommend it for anyone to watch anytime.

    I second that.....I've watched it so many times from when  I was a little tiny tot to someone not much taller today....Wonderful life is a wonderful film....America make only violent gory  films that make no sense anymore...:(
    Or its all that we get shown in cinemas or on TV in England....

    Yes!     Not only is that movie's 71 years old, but it's been aired numerous times (throughout the year) on TV, and is only $3.99 in the bargain bin at Walmart.  Unless you're younger than 18 there's no excuse for not having slept through that dreadful movie at least once.

  • Hahah.    I LOVE Bill Hader and Jason Sedakis, or however his name is spelled. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at December 20, 2018 10:13 AM MST

    I like the part when the chemist bashes him on his bad ear...then realizes his dreadful mistake....

    Things are rarely what they seem or appear to be....

    Wow -- that scene is the one that stays with me the most, by far!
    :)
    I don't love it at all, though -- it makes me cry. That young boy actor is amazing in that scene. As is the pharmacist, too.

    I have it on DVD and watch it regularly ...as small kids we were all made to sit and watch it....Made ,became a treat though ,with all six kids and my parents sitting there quite tearful at times from watching it...
    Have you seen Captains Couragous ....Spencer Tracey and Freddie Bartholomew.....another great film never to be missed.....there are times when I have to leave the room while watching it....
    How Green was my Valley is another  old masterpiece....as is The Quiet Man with John Wayne...

    Of the other ones you mentioned, I've only seen "How Green Was My Valley." I saw it once. I remember watching it with my family in my teen (I think) years. I remember we all were remarking how miserable the story was; "miserable" as in, really depressing -- a real downer!

    Yes, you're right -- we all liked the movie a lot. I forgot to mention that we liked it.
    Yes, the story seemed pretty realistic, considering the plot/setting/etc.
