I had been hearing great things about the movie, The Best Christmas Pageant Ever, so Wednesday afternoon [at a 3:30 showing], my hubby and I went to see it.
The 2024 family comedy is rated PG and opened in theaters on November 8th. It's a faith-based film made from the classic children's book [of the same name] written by Barbara Robinson, published in 1972, and now enjoying a #1 rating on the New York Times Bestseller. Without giving away any spoilers I'll just say the rowdy six Herdman siblings have a reputation for being the worst kids in the world, and chaos erupts when they take over the local church Christmas pageant.
The film is 1 hour and 39 minutes long and was directed by Dallas Jenkins, director of The Chosen series. It was made into an hour-long TV movie in 1983 and I ordered that DVD for one of my great-grandaughter's Christmas presents.
If you go watch it, take Kleenex as it will tug on your heartstrings. It's SO good and I highly recommend it because it's a powerful reminder of the true meaning of Christmas.
If you go watch it, or if you already have, please leave a comment.
