Excellent film with a heartwarming story line that was beautifully portrayed! The cast showed real emotion and passion in the film. Dan Roebuck's work in this film was extraordinary. His skill in directing and acting is evident. This movie will definitely make you experience the heart of Christmas. My husband and I enjoyed it tremendously. We recommend it to all and it is especially relevant if you live in the Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania. There ate references to many local establishments and scenes from local landmarks. Take the family to see it...you will love the film and walk away filled with Christmas spirit!
I love movies based on true stories, and Saint Nick of Bethlehem is one that captivates and warms your heart. Inspired by Allen Smith, a real-life Santa Claus in central Pennsylvania, the film follows his journey from grief after losing his son to finding purpose by helping others. Set in Bethlehem, PA, the movie showcases local landmarks around Bethlehem and the Lehigh Valley which makes the movie all more special. The cast's chemistry brings a heartfelt emotion, delivering a story that makes you laugh, cry, and leave with love in your heart...and enough Christmas Spirit to light up the town. I will definitely be adding this movie to my yearly Christmas Movie watch list!
This heartfelt film beautifully captures Allen Smith's inspiring journey of turning personal tragedy into a story of hope and joy. Shot right here in Bethlehem, PA; the movie feels especially close to home, showcasing familiar sights that add a unique charm. My favorite moment was when Nick visited Boscov's-such a nostalgic and heartwarming scene! I love Boscov's! The cast delivers standout performances that bring the story to life with authenticity and emotion. With its touching narrative, stunning local backdrop, and message of resilience, this film is a must-see. It reminds us of the power of love, generosity, and the magic of community.
Each year I watch literally dozens of holiday favorites which I feel ground me in approaching the holiday season with an authentic connection to what I feel the holidays represent. We all experience a lot of things during the year and the mindset going into the end of the year can be at very different places. My experience is that being open to a wide variety of insights is very centering. St. Nick of Bethlehem was a wonderful way to spend an evening. I won't give spoilers as the experience of seeing them revealed left me covertly dabbing tears from my eyes. It is a wonderfully made local production.
Such a BEAUTIFUL film 🎅🏻 SAINT NICK OF BETHLEHEM! This movie deserves to be shown nationwide! A movie for the WHOLE family...🎄The cast is superb! Danny Roebuck is the heart of the film! You will laugh...you will cry...The characters are so easy to fall in love with because they are real people. Bethlehem is the Christmas City thus how appropriate for this film to be shot here!? Sitting in a showing that was sold out, it is so very evident that people want MORE family friendly films with heart, soul, quality and inspiration. You get all of this in this holiday film! This film will be a holiday tradition!
