Are you wearing Christmas slippers?
They look
very cute it must be said
But I think
they’d look much cuter
If I was to
see them under my bed
Are you wearing Christmas slippers?
They look
very cute it must be said
But I think
they’d look much cuter
If I was to
see them under my bed
If an Elf is wearing earmuffs
Call him
anything you choose
Safe in the
happy knowledge
That he
can’t possibly hear you
Based on an
autobiographical short story by Truman Capote, this story is about Buddy (T.J.
Lowther), an 8-year old boy who leaves Alabama in 1930 to go and live with his
father (Henry Winkler) in New Orleans, and has a terrible time while he is
there.
His father is a con man trying to raise money for his latest get rich quick
scheme and prays on wealthy middle-aged women flattering his way into their
cheque books and one of those frustrating his plans is matriarch Cornelia
Beaumont (Katharine Hepburn) and as he faces one setback after another there is
an uneasy relationship between father and son.
Henry
Winkler puts in a fine dramatic performance, as he ranged from loving father,
to con man, to angry and misunderstood outsider, Katharine Hepburn is a touch
of class in her final performance and a brief appearance from Julie Harris is a
glimmer of light.
Twas the night before Christmas and all thru the cottage
Was silence
with the owners at home in Peas Pottage
So under
cover of darkness at a very late hour
The cottage
was torched by the Sons of Glendower
Are you wearing tinsel?
Draped about your figure
Like a festive feather boa
Just covering your treasure
How seductive you appear
A little package of pleasure
You dance and prance
So full of vim and vigour
Now let me pull the tinsel
Then you can pull my trigger
I don’t understand marketing at all
When
opportunities seem myriad
Like a
sanitary products campaign
Specifically,
for the Christmas period

Travanti) who left Wales many years earlier and made a home in America and now must either sell the farm to a greedy land developer, or allow Gwen to keep the farm, opening the wounds of his tragic past in the process.
