Not a dry eye in the house.

Fantastic movie.

Agreed

That film has never done it for me.

For me, it is slow, tedious, artificially sentimental bollocks.

Gets 8.7 on IMDB. That must land it in the top 10 films of all time on the site.

That's internet hype for you.

Sheep voting for the abattoir.

Yup, that internet hype has been going on for nearly 70 years.

IMDB has been going for 70 years! Wow!

That film was a box office flop, made a loss, and got no awards, BTW. Its success is a modern phenomenon. It is the Merkin Christmas Carol, but without the good writing, plot, characterisation or script.

It is a silly film, with a contrived plot, a silly premise and a childish ending.

The Snow Goose is a far, far better example of the genre. But that was a British film, so does not count on IMDB.

WHS

Claptrap film.

Aye.

Whoever heard of a run on a savings and loan bank?
