About Nearly No Christmas
Before Christmas, the North Pole is a very busy place. When Rumbletum, the cantankerous boiler which drives the toy machines breaks down, Santa has to find a job in the city to pay for the repairs.
Directed by Yvonne Mackay, Nearly No Christmas leans on a strong ensemble — Michael Haigh, Mildred Wood, John Banas — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about family titles of 1983.
