AFF: Movie#9

Wednesday, December 5th, 2007

As we enter into the Holiday season, let’s get into the Holiday spirit with a classic Christmas film:

Bishop’s Wife Poster

This is one of the best Christmas movies ever made, in my opinion.
I’ve seen it almost every year, and it never seems to lose its charm.
It’s not one of those glossy, overly colorful tales about Santa Clause, which focuses more on
his bag of goodies than him.
Instead, here is a story about ordinary people…and…well, I’ll say a suprise guest.
It’s something you can enjoy as a child or as an adult,
and it’s a film which captures the true meaning of Christmas.
(MOST Christmas films say they do this, but I find that very few actually succeed).
Heartwarming, Insightful, Romantic, Easygoing, and Fun:
If this film were a person, that’s how I would describe him or her.
I’ll end with a quote from the film:

“The main trouble is there are too many people who don’t know where they’re going
and they want to get there too fast!”

(Bonus Points to whoever can tell me which character says this.)

Here is the trailer (Note its unique style):
