Audience Member Saw this back in the 80's and recently watched again. Obviously made on a very limited budget, with expectedly low production standards. Nevertheless, the film does have a certain charm and John Houseman is excellent as the demanding choirmaster. Fans of Handel's Messiah and those with a musical background might especially enjoy this one. Not a masterpiece but worth one viewing during the Christmas season. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked it but at times it didn't feel like a Christmas movie and other times it dragged on and on and this movie was all over the place just when I think its going go one direction it switches into random stuff a decent watch wish they would have done something different Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Loved the speech about what "amateur" means. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member An intelligent and heartwarming Christmas movie! John Housemen and Michael Learned are great. Sorry it is not seen on t.v. these days. It deserved to become a classic. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member A newly divorced and jobless mother seeks refuge in a Church choir run by a firm but fair music man with the goal to turn amateurs into a group of people capable of singing Handel. More than anything, this feels like a longer episode of 7th Heaven, unoriginal and forgettable. However, there is something cozy and heart warming about it that will please some people. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Excellent, if mawkish, exceedingly well-acted and well-cast contemporary early-eighties Christmas tale bears a unique premise focusing on a Bay area church choir's journey to the annual Holiday performance of Handel's 'Messiah', with all the requisite joy and drama involved, from a recently relocated divorcee's perspective(the elegant Michael Learned). A must-watch for every choral singer who has survived the 'Messiah' season. Extra half-star for casting John Houseman as the quintissential [new] choir director. ~ @thestaticisland Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Read all reviews
