personal favorite part of the movie


the ending with not only santa and jessica getting married but also the part about the mailman talking about piece on either it didnt feel cliche like in most christmas movies and felt very natural and uplifting.,,

I loved the wedding scene. In fact, I ended up getting married right around Christmas and thought of this scene. (In a Christmas-cartoon-special related note, I actually had a little statue of Rudolph and Clarice kissing as my wedding cake topper.)

I always liked the part when Jessica sang that song by the water fountain. I'm not sure why... it's kind of trippy. But I thought the song was really pretty.

Your wedding cake topper sounds precious. Nice to meet another person that cherishes these old shows as much as I do. I was 6 when "Rudolph" premiered on ABC and 11 when "Santa Claus" first ran. Watching them now reminds me of a much simpler and happer time in my life.

Have fun. Lifes' too friggin' short.

My favorite humorous parts are "Who's there? There's who?" and "Excuse me, sir, but you're breaking your own law..."

My favorite meaningful scenes are the wedding when Mr. Astaire says "They stood before the Lord..." and when the little girl asks, "Is that why he's called Santa Claus?" to which Mr. Astaire replies, "That's why, honey. That's why...". The latter never fails to evoke emotion in me.
