It's Christmas Eve in Wales. A young boy named Thomas is excited about the holiday, but he's also disappointed because it's raining instead of snowing. His grandfather gives him an old snow globe as an early Christmas present and starts telling colorful, amusing stories about his childhood Christmases that are shown in flashback. Thomas keeps asking his grandfather more questions because he likes the stories and because he doesn't want to go to bed. His parents finally insist that he go to bed, and his grandfather tells him one last story about going to bed on Christmas night while listening to his family singing carols downstairs. After Thomas falls asleep at last, his grandfather opens the bedroom window and sees falling snowflakes.
Leave your thoughts about A Child's Christmas in Wales.
| User ReviewJonathan PBased off a famous Welsh poem. Beautifully narrated. Only for those who still have an imagination left. |
| User ReviewSarah SThis is the film that we watch every Christmas, and I never tire of it. There will never be another poet or writer as graceful and eloquent with words as Dylan Thomas. The way he makes words come alive is so unique and artful. Such a BRILLIANT man!! |
| User ReviewElena Si watch this every christmas. it embodies what every holiday should be about. lovely descriptions and highly comical. |
| User ReviewDiane HIt just wouldn't be Christmas without watching this joyous half hour of a grandfather's reminiscences of his idyllic childhood in Wales |
| User ReviewKate TBEST CHRISMAS MOVIE EVER!!! good luck finding a copy! it's taken me YEARS to find one |
| User ReviewPrivate UThis is probably my favourite Christmas movie. It's an enacted version of the well-known Dylan Thomas poem. The scenes shown are virtually perfect Christmas memories, or how I always imagined Christmas would have been like in early 20th century England (ahem, Wales). It's very warming, and the narration by Denholm Elliott is perfect. |
| User ReviewHallie GHardly a better way to have a Christmas movie. One could be concerned that the movie would ruin the experience of the story, which my father has been reading aloud with love to us for years, but the movie remains quite true to the story. :-) |
| User Reviewkathy mit brack your hart and mack you cry , You just hafe to see it one time . |
| User ReviewPenthesilea GFinally saw this last year and it's proven to be a favourite! |
| User ReviewSarah FWonderful movie about a child's life in Wales. |
