I remember the movie House Without a Christmas Tree being aired for the first time on CBS in 1972.I was 10 years old too at that time. The movie is based around a ten year old girl wanting a Christmas tree so bad she tries persuading her stubborn but heartbroken father to buy one in every way she can think. Addie is challenged in many different ways, all for the love of wanting a Christmas tree. The story leads to great heartache for Addie as well as her father. The grandmother, who lives with them too, tries to convince the father to no avail.
This is a must see movie for all ages. A wonderful cast consisting of Jason Robards as the father, Lisa Lucas as Addie, and Mildred Natwick as the grandmother. It has a very heart-wrenching, but moving surprise ending, one you will be glad you didn't miss.
There is also, The Thanksgiving Treasure with the same cast of characters that you will be sure to enjoy as well. Both of these movies should be a must in everyones Christmas movie collection as well as in book form. These have become a yearly tradition for my family . My Christmas wish is for CBS or Hallmark to play these spirit filled holiday classics.
