THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – AN OLD FASHIONED THANKSGIVING (2008)

In this adaptation of the Louisa May Alcott story set in the late 1880's, a widowed mother of three Mary Bassett

(Hélène Joy), is struggling to put food on the table and keep the family together.

So oldest daughter Mathilda (Tatiana Maslany) secretly sends a letter to her estranged wealthy grandmother Isabella (Jacqueline Bisset) asking for help.

When Isabella arrives, Mary expresses her obvious disapproval, and the old wounds are reopened.

But with patience, compromise and frankness they are eventually healed.

Ted Atherton, Paula Boudreau, Michael Barbuto, Kris Turner,

Vivien Endicott-Douglas and Gage Munroe also star.
