As she attempts to control the family with money and social influence, secrets of the past are revealed-ones that could tear the family apart forever, or finally reunite it for a long-awaited, old-fashioned Thanksgiving.

      @@lionn8172 you may have noticed that this was not set in 2022.. therefore the ideas of children or even adults are not going to be in line with the way the world sees things now. This is a lovely story and if the only thing you gleamed from a heart warming tale is a child’s idea that gypsies are kidnappers that’s a shame.

Only it was BASED on a Louisa May Alcott Short Story, and made to RESEMBLE an American situation, most likely on the "King Estate". 🍁

      I was a young mom happy in what I thought was a great relationship.
      I was healthy and very active, loved gardening, my garden was beautiful abounds the with flowers, my house clean and tidy . We had enough money and lots of friends and family.
      Now I’m ill, chronically I’ll in immense pain and totally bedridden.
      Before that I had my 7th miscarriage..
      My house and garden a total mess ( in need of paint and some new windows and door locks. The outside needs painting and some plumbing work and my garden is totally overgrown ..)
      my mothers things stored in two of my bedrooms , all the way to the ceiling I’m not able to do anything.
      My boyfriend left me when I became ill and with him his daughter.
      Turned out he’d been cheating on me since we had been together for only 10 months , with both genders.
      In the years that have passed . I’ve had several operations, been raped and lost 11 close family members and several of my best friends. The few I had left don’t keep in touch since I’m bedridden and not able to go out or visit.
      I’ve tried to commit suicide, been in a pschyciatric ward for a month and in different useless therapy .
      I had to go disability support which has made me now to be on the breach of bankruptcy and all my money go to medication and the house.
      My daughter and I rarely have more than one meal a day, dinner / hot food maybe 4 times a month.
      My daughter has in that timeframe been sexually assaulted twice and had to go trough trials and even a stay at a juvenile center because children’s services thought she safer there before the trial since I had just been to hospital. That scarred her so badly, she was terrified all the times that seemed like an enternity, but was only 6 days .
      My lawyer got the whole mess cleared up after a 5 minute meeting .
      My mom became very ill and passed away last year, after us hardly being able to see her in the nursing home for a year because of covid .
      Her last 3 years my daughter had to take care of both my mom and me, so she didn’t get to graduate from Highschool ..
      I’ve lost my 15 year old dog and 3 precious cats.
      I had to stop working as a foster home for animals because I have enough to take care of the 6 cats I have here. One who’s 15 and soon has to be put down because he’s lost his sight and hearing and lost a lot of weight.
      I also had to pull out all of my teeth because heavy medication made them to rotten from the inside. They looked white and perfect until they fell out. I got so many painful infection that I had to pull them all. I was supposed to get new one this summer, but I’m still waiting…
      We have to be cold all the time now that it’s winter as we can’t afford to keep the house warm .
      Both my daughter and me are gluten, lactose and fructose intolerant and allergic to sea food , nuts , potatoes, rice and legumes so that we have to eat ridiculously expensive food , so we can’t afford it.
      This last year my daughter has lost 55lbs and I 40.
      So we had to buy new clothes on credit cards , which of course messed the rest of the finances.
      I’m scared to death of losing my house. The only place I’ve ever felt safe.
      I’ve moved 18 times before I built this house in 2000 when my daughter was a year old.
      Her dad/ my ex husband abused me and got only a 2 year sentcense for death treats and physical violence against me.
      My daughter is 23 and lives at home taking care of me and works as a bartender at a nice cocktail bar at night until 6 am..
      I was sexually abused as a young child, raped twice after I turned 18. My brother died when I was 2 , my dad when I was 9 and all my grand parents and my great grandma from 14-16..
      I was bullied at school from 1 grade until Highschool .
      I never got to use my university education in archeology, literature and folklore as I married at 22 with a violent Muslim man. He’s married again and have 4 young children my daughter are not allowed to see.
      I used to be pretty , popular, funny and could make friends with anyone.
      Now I don’t have a single friend.
      I’m alone most of the time as my daughter works nights and sleeps during the day and has to do all the household chores and go to the stores.
      I’m not even allowed to drive anymore because I have to wear fentanyl patches for my pain.
      So my life’s a mess and I have lost my looks and all confidence.
      I can’t go out at all , because I’m on chemo and a cold, not to talk about covid could kill me. And can hardly walk because of the pain anyway…
      I’ve haven’t talked to a man and has been celibate for 8 years now.
      I’m lonely and afraid for the day my daughter moves out.
      So I’ve lost so many years that 2008 seems like yesterday, but at the same time it feels like forever….

      @@malina1239 Friend, life & fate often seem so cruel to those who least deserve it. I know, believe me. And there's no point in offering trite platitudes to people suffering extreme misfortune. 2 things that give me hope through all my trials are my faith, & knowing that I'm never really alone, no matter how lonely & miserable I may be. I remember the story in the Bible about the 3 children of Israel in captivity in Babylon, & how they were thrown into the fiery furnace for refusing to worship the Babylonian king. The king's guards looked into the furnace, & then exclaimed to the king, "Did we not put 3 men into the furnace? Now, they are free of their bonds, & a 4th stands with them, in appearance like into the Son of Man; & they are not burnt up!". Christ, Who was the 4th Man, could have removed the 3 from the furnace, certainly. Instead, He stood with them amidst the heat & flames, protecting them, & proving to the king & his people, & to us, that no matter how horribly bad our situation is, He's always right in the middle of it with us, & able to save us if we put our faith & trust in God. I don't know if you're a believer, but I pray you find comfort in this example from God's Word. I know you're not alone, & please know that I pray for you & millions of others like you every single day. God bless you, friend.

    What a nice reprieve from all the sadness, madness and tragedy in the world right now. It seems as though nothing will ever be the same or have any resemblance of normality ever again. I grasp for bits and pieces of life as it should be again but it’s always out of reach these days. I love old movies where family is valued and lessons of love are around every turn. This world is far from comforting and it seems with each passing day… there is less and less to be thankful for . Stress and need abounds on so many levels one can scarcely count on one hand the true joy of a simple family gathering or the pro ledge of having plenty on the table much less true friends to share it with. I’m so thankful to have come across this breath of fresh air and whisper of past hopes. I pray I am the only one feeling so far from joy and peace of heart. I do not want to bare living in a hopeless world for much longer. We are being changed and as it appears… not for the better. I pray for us all that if we are granted more Thanksgivings… that we shall all be the happier next year. Blessings and peace is what I pray for us all. God Bless America.

    The actresses playing Tilly and her mother are only 7 years apart in real life.
    With the exception of Tilly praying to a statue (idolatry), this was a really good movie. It reminds me of Little Women and I just found out that this too was written by Louisa May Alcott! No wonder it reminds me of Little Women!😄❤️
    It's time to watch An Old Fashioned Christmas next.🎄 Thank you for the upload.💜

    Well done!!!!!! It brought to mind the strife between strong women in families and how they relate to one another even when there is love between them. Nothing like two Alfa hens in a coup let alone three!!!!! The lovely Jaqueline Bisset never grows old. I remember her in the movie The Deep so many years ago. We should remember people change and learn, well at least some do and for the better. Wars, epidemics, The Great Depression, famines, hard Winters brought out a strong will to survive, in some to unite, to push through to the other side where so many could no longer go.

Thank you for uploading this wonderful movie. And, Tatiana Maslany is delightful as Tillie. EDIT: It's nearing Thanksgiving 2023, and I've just watched this lovely movie again. It's even better this time around. With the world the way it is today, it's such a pleasure to watch a movie that's warm and loving, like a big hug. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

    I grew up reading People Magazine and Mad magazine, both of which reported on Jaqueline Bisset, a very popular actress. She portrays the elegant grandmother in the movie. Bissett is still so beautiful at age 78 (as of 2022), she suits the subdued elegance fashionable during the time this story takes place.

    There is another movie that continues the story of her going abroad with her grandmother. It is called an old fashioned Christmas. Some of the original actors/actresses are in it. I enjoyed it well enough but the first one is the best. If they made another one, I would like to see it where she comes home and gets married and what she does with her life and the outcome of her siblings.
