    Apple, enough. Sell as as many SD versions as you can, then switch to HD. Smart business decision, we got it. Until you offer HD to us customers who won't play your game, I’ll wait....
  • A must see Christmas movie!

    I love this movie so much, I’m surprised more people don’t know about. Wonderful acting from Cary Grant, Loretta Young. Made in the golden age of Hollywood when movies had class and a message. Do not miss this one.

    This is one of the greatest holiday movies of all time. Right up there with White Christmas, Christmas in Connecticut, etc. This is a classic that should be passed down to generation after generation. A++++++++
  • Secret Christmas classic..

    Light, sweet and fluffy entertainment. I admit I'm crazy about Cary Grant and that certainly adds to my rating. But I was spoiled by The Preacher's Wife with Denzel. 😉 The movies are very similar, but oh so different. There's room on my Apple TV for both!
