Jenny und der Weihnachtsmann

Very poignant. I first saw it in 1991 and again in 2003. I liked it. There are three themes they are: the innocence of childhood, Christmas is a special time of year, and it is easy to down and discouraged especially around Christmas. Merle Osmen played the father. I remember him from the Osmne Brothers when I was a kid and they had a Saturday morning cartoon. Some may remember Ted Lange from The Love Boat. The acting is good. There are several other movies about Christmas with these themes such as "Santa Clause". I hope that this movie is available on Video. There are many other good Christmas movies we don't see at Christmas. It reminds me of the Movie "Santa Clause".

There is something that I don't understand why such a wonderful movie was never released on VHS or on DVD. I have not met a person who has seen it that didn't love it and want to buy it. Even today the demand is great for it. No one knows who to ask though. I remember that for a while they use to show it every year so I didn't bother to tape it when I had the chance. Big mistake for me. I think that with the garbage they are coming out now with. that it nearly wasn't Christmas would be a breath of fresh air. can anyone help us? Thank you, from all of It nearly wasn't Christmas fans every where and we are many. I assure you.If you know of any company or any one person we can contact to show our interest it would be greatly appreciated. This generation would love this story and we need to see good quality programming especially in these trying times. So, please, please if you can help us, please let us know. Thank you.

I just saw the movie yesterday on the Disney Channel. I watch the Disney Channel all the time. When I saw it, I decided to watch it. I have to say, I really loved this movie. It really tore my heart to imagine Santa giving up on us, but when he came through, I was happy. I loved that song that Wayne Osmond sang. After I watched the movie, I had to get on here. I didn't know that Wayne was part of the Osmond clan. I love Donny and Marie. If this movie was on TV again, I'd watch it in a heart beat.

This movie reminds me of my childhood, when it was played on television every year at Christmas time. My sister, brother and I used to get so excited, yelling and screaming every time we knew it was coming on TV. Although it may not have any mention of religion (not ALL of us are religious) it is a very cute tale that brings warm happy memories to mind. I don't understand why they stopped playing it every year, as far as I'm concerned it's just as important as the Grinch movie. What can I say, I am a sucker for Christmas movies... I just wish I could find it on DVD!! Anyone know where to find it? Looked everywhere but this movie cannot be found!?!?!

I feel this movie will leave you with the feeling so many have lost over the years - love and a feeling of goodness. This movie tries to point out the missing elements not just in Christmas but in our everyday lives. Stop and take the time to actually watch and listen to this movie not just with your eyes but with your heart. Beverly Rowland was perfect as Mrs. Claus and Charles Durning was superb in his portrayal of a saddened Santa. Risa Schiffman; Annette Marin; Wayne Osmond all did wonderful jobs acting. My favorite though would have to have been Philpot - what a delightful character and one that displays a little of each of us.
