CHRISTMAS EVE AT THE NORTH POLE

 

Christmas Eve at the North Pole

Under moonlit skies

Creeping around the Village

Are the Mince spies

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – BEVERLY HILLS PUPPY

 

This is a good Christmas movie aimed at a family audience, with a wonderful message in which, with help from a guardian angel, a spoiled rich and very materialistic teenage girl learns that true value is found in assisting others and not in material possessions.

It has a great cast to tell the tale, Donna Spangler (Angelina Foxworth), Dean Cain (Archangel Gabriel), John Savage (Mr. Winters), Ravin Spangler (Ravin Foxworth), Brittan Taylor (Hannah), Simona Fusco (Yvonne), Cindy Marinangel (nurse), Brandon Russell (Jerry), Vincent De Paul (James Foxworth), Sue Wong appears as herself and of course the ridiculously adorable Jack Pomeranian steals the show as Bunny the dog.

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS # 15

 

Twas the night before Christmas and thru the bungalow

Not a creature was stirring in the fireside glow

They’d all been evacuated because of the flood

And the living room floor was all covered in mud

ARE YOU WEARING BLACK TINSEL?

 

Are you wearing black tinsel?

Tied amidst your lustrous curls

Well you must either be a Grinch

Or you’re a very wicked girl

SANTA HAS TO WORK HARDER THIS YEAR

 

Santa has to work harder this year

At the North Pole I fear

Since the jackpot of Euromillions

Was won by Santa minions

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – 29TH STREET

 

On Christmas Eve, Frankie Pesce Jr (Anthony LaPaglia) of Queens wins $6 million in New York State's first lottery.

But instead of joy, he's in a rage, breaking church windows and disturbing the peace after which he is arrested.

At the police station, he tells his story to Sgt Tartaglia (Robert Forster) beginning with his hazardous birth and all the ins and outs of life in the Pesce household, from his father (Danny Aiello) losing his trucking business to a Mafia wise guy, right up to the point he lost his job as a teamster.

But all in all it’s a fairly ordinary life for a New Yorker so why after winning $6 million, is Frankie so disconsolate?

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS # 14

Twas the night before Christmas and all thru the Crescent

Not a creature was stirring not even a peasant

But that in itself is not uncommon to see

When you live in a gated community
