Some annuals (Christmas season) wear out in time. This is one of those. However it does not distract from the first few times of viewing. Along with "Desk Set" ASIN: 6301586034, and "Christmas Story" B00000JKNP, it is watchable year round.
All three of these angles hold there own. (Humphrey Bogart, Aldo Ray, and Peter Ustinov) they are escaped convicts that have agendas of their own; but get warped up in the affairs of the family of a local general store owner. The story may not be unique but the way they play it out is both cute and funny.
Who plays Adolph? We must never forget the protagonist.
