Thank you so much for this! A great tradition. And a simple presentation of a very complicated family. I've enjoyed Christmas memory for years. This part of the story is new to me. Have been reminded that Truman Capote was Dill in To Kill A Mockingbird since the recent publication of Harper Lee's book, and it's made this little gem all the more meaningful. I'll watch it annually, at least for a while.
A superb little film, with the wonderful (and sadly missed) Geraldine Page. This kind of material is rarely produced for television today: there's not enough whiz-bang to keep the little ADHD-hobbled little ones interested, and it's just too literate for today's audience. Standards were much higher in those days, particularly for children's television. Sadly, the quality of this work is rarely reproduced these days.
It's sad, but true. Kids today seem content with trash. I wish I could turn it around, but we're in it so deep now, I don't know how to turn it around.
this is my blessed mamas' favorite movie to usher in her favorite season Autumn and season to come, Winter here in Virginia.mama is Gloria Smith Williams. She is beloved. ,Roxie Williams Bridges.
Hansford Rowe III (the bully) apparently went on to become a bass player. He and his father were both in this, it was the first film for both. Hansford Rowe, Jr. went on to take other acting jobs.
PLEASE remaster all of these Capote writings! made into films!
I LOVE this glimpse into quality television from the 60's. Thanks for uploading!

It can't be reproduced, because Capote is gone. He was irreplaceable.
Loved Christmas memory,didn't know about this?! Cant wait to watch!!
I was a child then but I loved ABC Stage 67. The drama on this series was great. A Christmas Memory I will always remember.
Yes, true gems.
I'm Truman Capote's fan. I like all works produced from him. Thank you for post this video! Wonderful!
My sentiments exactly !!
🦃What a wonderful Thanksgiving tradition🦃

Sorry for the crappy quality of this rip (not my fault!). The annoying lines only last for the first minute or so. My apologies. --Ep

You are so welcome.
"Ah forbid yo ta give that boy another dime!" I can seen why those two hags are spinsters.
Thank you so much for sharing. Geraldine was such a joy to watch. Is this available anywhere on DVD?
Nice to get this sort of quality programming on You Tube. The trash the networks have on Tv these days leaves me speechless
creolelady182 got that right. From a 70 year old.
Anybody ever finds Robert Morse's Tru on some kinda media...I'd love to see it.
The depression was in the 30s, not the 60s.
I don't think you're going to get any argument about that.... 🤔🤷
@sclogse1 - Got it on my channel. Enjoy.
