The Christmas That Almost Wasn't

“A more wonderful...more magical...more musical entertainment than this - there just isn't!”

In a once-upon-a-time land, the attorney Sam Whipple (Paul Tripp) gets an unexpected visit from Santa Claus (Alberto Rabagliati) just before Christmas. Phineas T. Prune (Rossano Brazzi), who holds the deed to the North Pole, wants back rent, or he will evict Santa, Mrs. Claus and the elves and take every toy. Rossano Brazzi's first film as director rests on a plain idea: a kindness offered as a child can still be called in years later.
