6/10
like the first half
22 December 2020
New York industrialists George Melton (Harry Carey), Allan Chadwick (C. Aubrey Smith), and Michael O'Brien (Charles Winninger) live in a mansion with Russian exile countess Madame Tanya (Maria Ouspenskaya). Their Christmas dinner guest cancel at the last minute. Michael has an interesting idea to find worthy dinner companions. They get Texas cowboy James Houston (Richard Carlson) and teacher Jean Lawrence (Jean Parker).

It's an intriguing first half. I love the $10s. The story takes A Christmas Carol turn and it struggles to make it compelling. It's not quite good enough but I still really like the first half.
