Trivia
The DVD version of the movie has scenes and extended scenes that were cut/shortened in recent television airings of the film on the Hallmark Channel.

Goofs
After Nathan convinces Emilie to give him and the town two weeks, a montage of scenes implies the passage of time. However, in the final scene after the montage ends when Nathan comes out of the house and they're all admiring the lights, it's the same day as the day he convinced her to stay for two weeks. Also during the montage, the Christmas tree is up but undecorated, but when Alexander Foster had arrived at the house earlier, the tree is fully decorated.

Quotes
Emilie: [reading the welcome sign] Bethlehem... we couldn't be *that* lost.

Connections
Edited into Hallmark Hall of Fame (1951)

A film for ALL seasons

This is a wonderful film that, while taking place during the hoildays, is one that can be viewed at any time of the year and be thoroughly enjoyed. I have watched it many times since getting it last December. As with any Hallmark show, the production values are outstanding. Although based on a book by Marilyn Pappano, the teleplay far surpasses the original. All the changes simply made for a better story.

What a great cast of veteran performers - Patty Duke, Laura Dern, Faith Prince, Kathy Baker and Lynn Redgrave in a film stealing role as a judge. Each of the supporting roles are equally effective.

This is a film that could rival "It's A Wonderful Life" as a great holiday (or any time) entertainment.
