Nice story horrible beard

I didn't know what the film was about when I started watching it and really enjoyed it. However I did struggle for a long tome with the horrible fake beard. I know they couldn't go without a beard but that one was shockingly bad in it's fakeness.

It's a shame as I think it could be off-putting to people who may see the beard and assume the whole production is cheap and naff so won't bother to watch it.

This is a fairy tale and it's very touching indeed. Northern people are not known to very hairy so in that thought they had to have Santa look as close to the character we all are familiar with.
I never even thought about his beard, it's the story which is what it's all about.

With all the money here we couldn't even make such a movie unless we'd copy it.
