When I heard this movie was coming out, I knew that I would love it. I
read the book, The Christmas Shoes and loved it. When I saw the movie,
I truly knew that it was just as good as the book.
The acting was just incredible. Rob Lowe did a great job of playing a
workaholic lawyer who barely spent any time with his family. What
really made me love this movie and book was Nathan (Max Morrow). When
he saw those Christmas shoes in the store, the look on his face was
priceless. When he helped Robert Layton (Lowe) discover what he was
missing, I simply burst into tears. I normally do not cry during a
movie this much, but this movie was so wonderful. All of those things
that kept happening to Layton and how he slowly saw what he was missing
out on was just so wonderfully written and acted out.
This movie and the book go to prove that miracles really do happen. My
favorite moment in the movie was near the end when Robert, his wife,
and his daughter were standing in front of Nathan's house. The
expressions on their faces was so sad but so real.
I highly recommend this wonderful holiday movie to anyone who believes
in miracles, and even to those who don't--this movie may change what
you think about miracles happening.
