A Christmas Wish is a heartwarming holiday classic about a New York family (led by Durante) who is down on their luck at Christmas time. Shortly before Christmas, they move into the ground floor apartment where Rupert The Squirrel lives in the attic rafters. Just when it seems that the holiday will come and go without so much as a Christmas tree, Rupert acts as the family's guardian angel, not only saving Christmas, but changing their lives forever. This film is enlivened with the warmth and sweetness of an unforgettable love story between Terry Moore (of
Mighty Joe Young) and Tom Drake (of
Meet Me In St. Louis). Rupert the Squirrel (created using George Pa's Academy Award winning animation technique) will charm young and old alike. Jimmy Durante shines when he sings "Jingle Bells" and other well-loved Christmas carols in the evocative voice that made him one of America's recording legends.
