Our only Christmas tradition: Watching the movie "Prancer." If you have kids, this is THE movie to see. My partner and I first saw it in 1989, 32 years old, sitting in the back of theatre filled with parents and kids, the movie ends, lights go up, and there we were bawling our eyes out. We sunk as far down in our seats as we could.
Now we cry when the music starts, can't even get past the opening credits. Sam Elliot is pitch perfect in his role as a widowed dad, struggling to make ends meet on his small farm. His little girl is a bundle of joy and energy. She is a true Santa believer and won't be stopped until she affects the entire town. Is it really Prancer in her shed?
Great acting from big stars (Cloris Leachman, Abe Vigoda and more) and unknowns. The kids were all great too. No murders, guns, curse words, sex, just a good Christmas movie for all ages.
Funny too. What more could you want?
