A Christmas Wish (1950)

A family moves into an apartment where Rupert the squirrel lives in the attic rafters. Just as it seems that the Christmas holiday will come and go without so much as a Christmas tree, Rupert acts as the family’s guardian angel – not only saving Christmas, but changing their lives forever.
