Robert
is an elderly grocery store bagger who lives alone in a big house. Mary and her
daughter Alex move into a house across the street. Robert and Mary meet and they start to see each other. It’s the Christmas season, the
lights and festivities help their romance along.
Robert doesn’t know how he ever lived without Mary. Mike, Robert’s boss goes with Robert to
find the perfect Christmas gift for Mary.
I
didn’t see this ending coming because of certain items in the plot that don’t
add up to this ending? Their
romance is lovely and you hope they can continue with Robert proposing marriage
and Mary accepting. The dream
scenes are unnecessary and confusing? 3* (This movie is OK)
92
min, Drama directed by Nicholas Fackler with Martin Landau, Ellen Burstyn,
