The Holiday season is approaching fast and if you’re not already in the holiday spirit, these movies may do the trick.
“A father vows to get his son a Turbo Man action figure for Christmas. However, every store is sold out of them, and he must travel all over town and compete with everybody else in order to find one.”
Filmed right here in the Twin Cities!
“While out on parole, Dennis reluctantly takes a job selling Christmas trees with his old buddy Rene in order to make enough money to buy his estranged daughter the piano she’s always wanted.”
The Nutcracker
“The story of The Nutcracker is loosely based on the story The Nutcracker and the Mouse King, about a girl who befriends a nutcracker that comes to life on Christmas Eve and wages a battle against the evil Mouse King.”
Come into the Music and Media Collections (OSF Library 104A) to see what movies we have on our holiday display that are available for check out.
A Christmas Carol
“At first, miserable, greedy old Scrooge can’t tolerate the revelry of Christmas, much less comprehend its meaning. But visits from his former business partner’s ghost and three cautionary specters from the past, present and future force the man to soul-search.”
A man is saved from a suicide attempt by an angel and is then shown how important he is to the people who love him. A Christmas classic.”
