The Great Rupert (1950)

 

Family Christmas Fantasy

The colorized version of this film seems to be titled "A Christmas Wish" from what I can tell.

This film stars Jimmy Durante and Rupert the dancing, money giving squirrel. Durante is Mr. Louie Amendola, a down on his luck man with a wife and daughter. The three of them move into a rundown flat and a landlord who is a bit of a Scrooge. Landlord hides money in the wall but Rupert pulls out the money and accidentally tosses it out of his hole into the hands of the Amendola family who gives some of it to the poor.

This is a nice holiday film - one I would watch again. Worth watching along with other holiday classics.

7/10
