It's a cute movie. It has been years since I have seen it though. Very cheap on Amazon.

I am going to try to get this one this year.

I hope for you,

Someone recently asked Ed Asner on Twitter how many times he has played Santa. He replied - "What do you mean play? I am Santa!"

That's a good answer.

He has a quite a few Santa performances under his belt, both live action and animated.

I didn't think of that.

This is available to watch for free On Demand in the AMC section under "Movies".

Thanks for telling us.

I am going to try to see this one this year.
