    • Quotes

      Addie Mills: What is heavier: a pound of gold or a pound of feathers?

      Cora Sue: A pound of gold, naturally.

      Addie Mills: Uh-uh, neither. A pound is a pound the world round, no matter what it consists of.

    It Captures The Meaning Of Friendship!

    This is a heartwarming holiday classic created by the same folks that gave us The House Without A Christmas Tree. It is the touching story of a little girl's unlikely friendship with a lonely old man during the holidays. It stars Lisa Lucas, Jason Robards and, the late, Mildred Natwick. The setting is a small town in Nebraska in the late 40s. It gives us some true insight about human kindness. This was released as a movie for television in 1973 after the success of The House Without A Christmas Tree.
