Okay for kids perhaps In the pantheon of holiday productions, this may be acceptable, however in the context of all film and television it is sub-par. The story is not well written, much of the acting is at high-school play level, the fashion does not fit the period and, as a result, you become overly aware of it as a production instead of a story. No doubt the producer(s) were doing the best they had with the resources available but the whole thing misses its target.
