TCM - Star in the Night (1945) Discussion

I just saw it too...on TCM. I know I've seen it before...maybe around Christmas time. But it still brought tears to my eyes. It really is a cute little short...and so very touching, too. Glad I caught it!

Tonight was the first for me. It was indeed "so very touching."--I'm glad I caught it too!

For the very first time here just caught the second half of this wonderful short film this morning ( and it brought tears of joy to my eyes too ) . I looked up the TCM Schedule and there is another showing for it on Tuesday December 24th at 5AM . Thanks kueskues for your subject post .

I'm glad you got to see even a little bit of it. It was done so well and is so touching how everyone pitches in to help. I got to see the whole thing this morning and it brought tears to my eyes again!

Merry Christmas to you, too!!

I'm going to try my best to catch it on this Tuesdays showing ( December 24th at 5AM ) . That part was so wonderful with everyone pitching in to help and even slightly grouchy Nicky the hotel owner in the end had a tear in his too . I so know how he felt miracles do have that effect on us sentimental folks around here . Thanks so much jaysea2 and have a wonderful New year too !

I forgot to thank you, ms-zanadu, for the heads up on it being shown again on Tuesday. I'm going to try to tape it...if I'm awake, that is! The very first time I saw it, I missed the first couple of minutes. And I agree...Nicky turned out to be a good man...giving the traveling man a free cup of hot coffee and in the end...his coat. I had to get a Kleenex! I hope you get to see it from the very beginning. I know you'll enjoy it even more!
