It was on my Netflix queue and I was saving it for Christmastime, and now that Christmas is almost here... Netflix made it unavailable! It's very exasperating. I'm not sure if there was a huge demand for it and that's why it's unavailable but, whatever the reason, it's irritating. I really want to see it.Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14920287901509695920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4558024187808401650.post-11312104432100079882010-12-12T17:58:53.850-05:002010-12-12T17:58:53.850-05:00Can’t remember the name of an old Christmas Movie....Can’t remember the name of an old Christmas Movie. Probably made late 1930’s. Setting; depression era New York City. Story line: An old but refined “hobo” travels back forth between Virginia & New York on the same timetable as a wealthy family with homes in both locations. He occupies the vacant residence when they change homes. He takes in good people who are down on their luck, feeds them and finds them jobs, enjoying the comfort, cigars & pantry of his unknowing host.<br />The wealthy homeowner has a daughter in a New England college, but has left school and comes the New York home so that her father won’t know that she quit school and to see her boyfriend. She finds the hobo & his wards in the home but doesn’t identify herself to avoid notice to her father and stays on a one of the rest of the “guests”. <br />Her father finds out that she is not in school & comes to New York to find her. She’s come to admire the hobo and pleads with her father not to interfere. The hobo takes the father in and finds him a job sweeping the sidewalk on front of a store.<br />I can’t remember the ending, but I’m sure it’s a happy ending consistent with era. Do you know this one? Send me a note if you do.

I guess I will do Christmas In Connecticut...as long as that's not yours. If that one's taken I can do White Christmas. But yeah, just about any of the old movie Christmas classics are fine by me. Just a thought: maybe you could do the compile list a little before December 24th, so we still have time to hunt down the new titles we want to see before Christmas. Just an idea; not sure how practical that is, though. Once again, I LOVE this idea!!!Audreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06729516870952658426noreply@blogger.com
