One of the shows I remember enjoying when I was growing up, was ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas. Every year my sister, brother and I would anxiously wait for it to come on tv. Lucky for my kids, technology has advanced quite a bit and Warner Home Video just released the 1974 classic ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas on Blu-Ray/DVD! I know there are a lot of holiday classics out there, but for me, this is one of my absolute favorites and I was so excited to be able to watch it with my own children.
‘Twas the Night Before Christmas, tells the story about how for some unexplained reason, letters to Santa Claus are being returned to the children of Junctionville. It seems some resident has angered St. Nick, calling Christmas “a fraudulent myth!” Skeptical AlbertMouse has to be brought to his senses “and let up a little on the wonder why.” How Albert is persuaded to change his tune paves the way for Santa’s jolly return to town – and the joyous finale of the animated fable inspired by Clement Moore’s poem and produced by the merrymaking conjurers of Rankin/Bass Studios. The voice talents of Joel Grey, Tammy Grimes, John McGiver and George Gobel make this festive fable even more fun
‘Twas the Night Before Christmas Deluxe Edition Bonus Feature Includes:
- Christmas: A Global Holiday – An animated comic book that explores Yuletide traditions around the world.
The dvd is only 24 minutes long, which in my opinion, is the perfect length for the little ones. Both of my boys enjoyed watching this just as much as I did. The memories came flooding back as soon as I popped it into our dvd player.
‘Twas the Night Before Christmas Deluxe Edition is available now, so be sure to pick up your copy this holiday season.
