Wonderful, One of My Favourite Christmas Movies of All Time

"This Osmond production is one of the best family movies out there. It is a touching story with excellent acting by Marie Osmond and Timothy Bottoms and all the supporting cast as well. I particularly like the friendship between Beth and Mary the servant girl. My teenage niece said there was only one "cheesy" part when the main characters reunite at the end. I prefer to call it touching, lol! :-) The costumes, the story line, EVERYTHING, is extremely well done. It supports Christian and family values, and there is certainly nothing that is in any way offensive. I would highly recommend this one. The Christmas theme also adds a nice touch. I also will mention that the video is closed captioned, although it does not say so on the case. I am glad for that as the two oldest Osmond brothers, who have a hearing loss, can more easily watch their sister in this outstanding film!"
The warmest movie ever made

"Chances are, if you are reading this review, you are already a fan of this movie, or a fan of Maire Osmond, either of which makes you a superbly fantastic person. Congratulations on the wonderfulness that is you. Now, onto the movie. . . While often passed off just as a Christmas movie (and, don't get me wrong it should be watched at least twice every Holiday season), I also just watch this movie when I am a little down or feeling really happy already. It will leave you warm and tingly for days. I truly don't think the story could be any sweeter, or acted any more lovingly. Now, it is easy to assume that such a sweet love story would be cheesy. It's not, not at all. However, it is the definition of innocence, which can be mistaken as cheesy. The acting, as stated before, is perfect for the story, the one song she sings is haunting and will stay with you, the filming technique (while dated and not high quality) actually adds a warmth and dimension to the film. Get this movie, share it with someone you can snuggle up close to and fall asleep with. Truly wonderful!"
THE GREATEST LOVE STORY EVER
