Timeless!
A friend recently reminded me in 1983 when this film was released it only managed to make just over $19 million at the US box office. Movies that beat it in 1983 included High Road to China, Class, My Tutor and Two of a Kind. Ever heard of any of those? Didn't think so.

So how, 35 years later, does this film still endure so much it is played on a 24 hour loop and several US TV stations the few days leading up to Christmas?

Plenty to love. Relateable, enduring characters. Is Santa real? Cute and fun. Not politically correct. Lots of memorable scenes and unforgettable moments.

I would say there is a very short list of holiday films I try and make time for annually, but this is definitely one of them!

Pretty sure I've seen Class (if it's the movie with Andrew McCarthy and Jacqueline Bisset) and definitely seen High Road to China at least twice...
