This is probably my favorite Christmas movie of all time. I always put it on when decorating the tree.
I have a special memory of watching this at my parent's house long ago, and my dad was in a wheelchair because he had a stroke. The part when the General comes down the stairs and all the troops are there, I can still see my dad who had rolled into the living room to watch and started crying at that part. My dad was in the Navy and I think it struck a chord in him being a retired military person.
Anyway, I cry every time I watch that movie at the same spot, even just thinking about it brings tears to my eyes, lol.
This is my kids' favorite movie too. I tried to get my older sister to watch it and she is just not an old movie person. So weird, lol.
So yes, I will definitely be watching this movie very soon, and I'm sure I'll watch it more than once!
