Not a Creature Was Stirring
Missing the Christmas spirit? Has the Yuletide you up in knots? Then subscribe to the Herald Tribune, where editor J.J. Garnes makes sure he uses the holiday to his own advantage, whether it be to expose the crooked mayor or sell a few more issues with just the right angle. And he thinks he finds that angle when he receives a letter from a small boy who "don't want no more Christmases." Delilah and Sarah, Garnes' assistants, are equally cynical until they find a "Wish Moose," a Christmas ornament that grants their fondest wishes. Do they believe? It's up to Barney, the janitor, to show them how to develop the St. Nick knack. And wishes do begin to come true - with hilarious consequences - whether it's Garnes, dressed as Santa Claus, falling out of a crop duster, or maybe St. Nicholas himself showing up. This fast-paced tribute to Frank Capra has you laughing with a lump in your throat with all the season's warmth and wit. Full evening. One set.
