Looking for the title of an old movie, if anyone can help. I think it’s a Christmas movie.?
I do not know when it came out or who played in it and I really only remember one part of the story. I watched it in Junior High in the early 90s. It was about this little boy and an old lady and they were preparing to make fruit cakes for Christmas (if I remember correctly). They went out to trees to pick figs or dates, can’t remember for sure. That’s all I remember. It’s a live-action film. I believe it was in color, but it could have been sepia toned.
Any idea?
Hm, that can’t be it because I saw this in like 1992 or 1993 in middle school. ![]()
Okay, I think that might be it. The 1997 version would be a remake of the one I saw.
I believe it is A Christmas Memory (1997) (from a Truman Capote story)
A boy, Buddy, who’s parents have split and who’s mother is an actress in New York, has been dumped in the south at the small-town home of some older cousins, all of whom are unmarried. Buddy brings life to the house and develops a close friendship with one of the older, simpler ladies, Sook. Buddy and Sook undertake many adventures together, including the baking of 31 fruit-cakes which they give as Christmas presents, even mailing them to President and Mrs. Roosevelt and Jean Harlowe! Just before Christmas, one of the older cousins begins to wonder if it is best for Buddy to be living with them.
