00:00.
00:35Oh, my God.
01:19Oh, my God.
01:30Oh, my God.
01:54What day, is it there?
01:57December 22nd, Mr. Covent.
02:00And what's not going to happen in three days?
02:05Why, it's Christmas, Mr. Covent.
02:08Precisely.
02:09And do you know why?
02:11Uh, it's bad for business, Mr. Covent.
02:15Exactly.
02:16For 25 years, I have cancelled Christmas in Ironville, and for 25 years, profits have been up.
02:26Christmas is nothing more than a distraction.
02:29Don't you agree?
02:30Yes, Mr. Covent.
02:31You and the Christmas Patrol have done a fine job of seeing that Christmas never comes to Ironville.
02:38I expect no less this year.
02:41Are they ready for final inspection?
02:44Uh, yes, sir.
02:47Then send them in.
03:01I've never had a lollipop or sleigh ride in the park.
03:05I've never gone out fishing or played hopscotch for a lark.
03:09I've never had a birthday cake or a cuddly little cat.
03:13I've never had the time to play at foolish things like that.
03:16So is it any wonder that I loathe this time of year
03:21When everyone gets friendly and extends their special cheer
03:25It drives me to distraction to see them laugh and sing
03:29When they should all be working to make my coffers ring
03:42There'll never be a Christmas in this simple little town
03:46No lit up trees or presents or caroling around
03:50No stockings by the fireplace, no precious mistletoe
03:54No turkey or plum pudding or sleigh rides in the snow
03:59For Christmas is a humbug, a clever little scheme
04:03To keep everyone busy at not doing anything
04:14I've never had a toy box because I've never owned a toy
04:17Or played outside with school friends when I was just a boy
04:21I've never tasted candy or ridden on a horse
04:25Or got myself all dirty, which would never do, of course
04:30So can you understand now why I hate this season so
04:34With its merriment and singing and playing in the snow
04:38When families all gather round to share their love and joy
04:42It sets a bad example for every girl and boy
04:47There'll never be a Christmas in this simple little town
04:51No lit up trees or presents or caroling around
04:55No stockings by the fireplace, no precious mistletoe
04:59No turkey or plum pudding or sleigh rides in the snow
05:04For Christmas is a humbug, a clever little scheme
05:07To keep everyone busy at not doing anything
05:11For Christmas is a humbug, a clever little scheme
05:15To keep everyone busy at not doing anything
05:27Ah, there'll never be a Christmas
05:29You can count on us, sir
05:33There'll be no Christmas in Ironville this year
05:37Oh, that makes me very happy
05:54Holly for Christmas?
05:56Christmas?
05:58We don't celebrate Christmas here
05:59Now go away
06:06Holly for Christmas?
06:08Shh, mentioning that word could get me in trouble
06:30Holly for Christmas?
06:32Look, Bobby, there's a poor girl selling something
06:35So what?
06:37We've got to get home for dinner
06:38Why is everybody ignoring her?
06:41Who cares?
06:42Come on
06:43But if she doesn't sell anything
06:44She won't have any money for food
06:47Marion?
06:48Dad's gonna be mad if we're late
06:49Hey!
06:54Hi, I'm Marion Matthew
06:56This is my brother Bobby
06:58Hi
06:59Hello, I'm Angela
07:03You're not having much luck selling anything
07:06No one wants Holly for Christmas
07:08No wonder
07:10Who's ever heard of Christmas?
07:12I'm afraid you're right
07:14You must be very hungry
07:16Would you like to join us for dinner?
07:19Marion?
07:20I'd love to
07:21Then let's go
07:22We're late already
07:49Well?
07:50Duh, looks like Holly
07:53Smells like holly. Feels like holly.
07:58It is holly, you nitwits. Do you know what this means?
08:05Someone is trying to bring Christmas back to Ironville.
08:13With the discovery of the holly that Angela had accidentally dropped,
08:17the Christmas Patrol had done their job, and now had the unhappy task of informing Dee Dee Covert.
08:25As night fell, Marion and Bobby brought Angela to their home,
08:30happy to offer their new friends some food and shelter from the cold.
08:36You're sure Dad won't mind about Angela?
08:39I'm sure.
08:43Mom, Dad, we're home!
08:45You're late. What can...
08:48This is Angela.
08:49Hello.
08:51Hello, Angela.
08:52I asked Angela for dinner.
08:56We're poor people, Angela. We have no extra food.
09:01Then she can eat mine.
09:03Believe me, I understand this poor child's suffering, Marion,
09:07but I can't look after everyone who comes our way.
09:10Then who will feed her? Where will she go?
09:13Oh. Don't worry. I'll be all right.
09:17Wait.
09:21I wish I could offer more.
09:23You've given enough already.
09:28Forgive me for saying so, Margaret,
09:30but we shouldn't encourage the girl,
09:32or she'll be back.
09:33Then we'll give her some more when she does.
09:37I'm sorry, children,
09:39but there's nothing I could do for her.
09:47It's freezing cold outside.
09:49Where will she spend the night?
10:03Why is she heading for those woods?
10:05She could get lost, and no one would find her.
10:09Let's hurry.
10:33I'm doing the best I can, but it's not easy.
10:38Only two more days is all I have
10:41to keep this town from losing Christmas forever.
10:54It's useless.
10:55We'll never find her.
10:57We have to.
10:58We can't leave her out here alone.
11:01Look!
11:14Bobby, Miriam!
11:19How did she do that?
11:23Are you all right?
11:24We were so worried.
11:26Thank you for caring enough to find me.
11:29We're sorry about our father.
11:32He's really not that way.
11:33It's just that...
11:34It's okay.
11:35Anyway, we've decided that you're coming home with us.
11:38We'll sneak you inside.
11:40But our parents don't have to know.
11:42Come on!
11:43Come on!
11:45Excuse me?
11:48Haven't you forgotten someone?
11:52Oh, I know what you're thinking.
11:54What could this savage beast possibly want from us?
11:58It talks.
12:00Of course he does.
12:01But only to my very special friends.
12:04This is Wilfred.
12:06What's the matter, son?
12:07Wolf got your tongue?
12:15Oh, lighten up, Bobby.
12:17Haven't you ever met a talking wolf before?
12:22No, I guess not.
12:24Anyway, where was I?
12:26Oh, yes.
12:27I was pointing out that you were leaving without inviting me along.
12:31Just because I hang out in the woods doesn't mean I'm not civilized.
12:36He'd be no trouble.
12:38Honest.
12:38Okay, sure.
12:42Sure.
12:45Decent children like yourselves are a pleasant change from those barbarians in the pack.
12:51Shall we?
13:01Marion and Bobby had shown that they hadn't stopped caring, and Angela was now hopeful that she might yet bring
13:07the spirit of Christmas back to this sad town.
13:15But there was someone who stood squarely in her way.
13:19The miserable Dee Dee Covet, who was about to learn that the spirit of Christmas was living right on his
13:24back doorstep.
13:28Christmas holly?
13:31Christmas holly?
13:35Yes, Mr. Covet.
13:37We found it in the town square this afternoon.
13:41Yeah, take it away.
13:43So, it's finally happened.
13:46After all these years, some despicable individual has dared to challenge me and bring Christmas back to Ironville.
13:52But who?
13:53That is the question.
13:55And one you will quickly answer, right, Bear?
14:00Ah, yes, sir.
14:02Yes, Mr. Covet.
14:04Well, don't just stand there like a whimpering ape.
14:09Go and find out who, then bring him to me.
14:15Whoever you are, beware.
14:18For once I've found you, I'll give you a Christmas present you'll never forget.
14:25Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
14:29-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
14:30-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
14:31-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
14:32-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
14:34-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
15:01That's what I call a good night's sleep.
15:05I mean, pine needles are fine, but nothing beats a solid hardwood floor.
15:14Quiet, I know you're hungry.
15:17Let's find out what these humans have for breakfast.
15:21Hmm, oatmeal, brown sugar, and milk.
15:26It's not scrambled eggs and toast, but it'll do.
15:31That's one for Bobby.
15:33And one for Marion.
15:35And one for me.
15:37And one for...
15:54It's delicious, Mrs. Matthew.
15:56And Wilfred likes it too.
16:03So you see, Mom, we just couldn't leave Angela out in the cold.
16:07We had to help her.
16:09And the wolf?
16:11He's my friend.
16:13Of course.
16:14You gotta let him stay, Mom.
16:16They have no place else to go.
16:18I'll speak to your father.
16:28Angela was happy that finally there were stirrings of the Christmas spirit in the Matthew household.
16:33But she knew her work was just beginning.
16:39For there were many in Ironville who had long forgotten the meaning of Christmas and scorned the very ideas it
16:46stood for.
16:49That's big.
17:11I thought we were messing with that house.
17:11But, before thep's in us.
17:11I thought, you probably believe權, or graceful other people.
17:12Thatτα
17:12What the Felix Caius would be supposed to start shooting with a lot?
17:41Isn't it the most beautiful thing you've ever seen?
17:45Yes, Mr. Covent.
17:47The Covet Dynamic Valvular Flange is what I live for.
17:53It's what you and everyone in this town lives for.
17:57There is nothing else.
17:59Yeah!
18:08Any news on catching that villain who's trying to bring back Christmas?
18:13Um, no, sir.
18:16But I have my patrol checking every house in Ironville.
18:21Whoever it is won't escape us for long.
18:29Have you heard?
18:31Hoskins and the Christmas Patrol found some holly in the town square.
18:35Covet thinks there's a conspiracy to bring back Christmas.
18:39Quiet!
18:39Mentioning Christmas could get us fired.
18:43Covet's right about Christmas.
18:45It's a big waste of time.
18:54Will whoever did it please step forward?
18:58I did it.
18:59The penalty for breaking a glangor is one week's pay.
19:04Come with me.
19:06Better him than you, eh, Lucas?
19:16Lucas was grateful for the sacrifice that Samuel had made for him.
19:20But he was surprised to see this kind of caring in Ironville.
19:29Meanwhile, Bear Hoskins and his patrol began searching from house to house to find who had brought the holly into
19:35Ironville.
19:47Did you see someone selling Christmas holly in the square yesterday afternoon?
20:03Brown hair, big brown eyes, dressed in rags, selling holly in the square.
20:09The coveted dynamic valvular flange at risk because of a young beggar girl?
20:17Find her at once and bring her to me.
20:31That's some weird-looking dog you got there.
20:35He's not a dog.
20:37He's a wolf.
20:38Yeah, right.
20:39Then let's see if your wolf can dodge this.
20:51His name's Wilfred.
20:54And this is Angela.
20:56She's new in town.
20:57You've got to be weird having a pet like that.
21:01Why that uncivilized, uncouth?
21:04Calm down, Wilfred.
21:05Humans are cruel when they don't understand.
21:08What are you doing in Ironville?
21:10Well, actually, I've come to bring you Christmas.
21:15Christmas?
21:17What's that?
21:19Imagine a day when people you meet greet you with smiles as you pass in the street.
21:30Imagine a day when the world has no cares, when kindness and sharing and love fills the air.
21:41If we could imagine a day such as this, when troubles would fade like the morning mist.
21:53Then that day would be Christmas, a time to reflect on families and friends and all those we neglect.
22:14Imagine a day when suffering would cease and hearts would rejoice and a world filled with peace.
22:26Imagine a day without sadness and fear, where no one's a stranger, but one we hold dear.
22:37Then that day would be Christmas, a time to rejoice.
22:43That we're part of one family, and we sing with one voice.
22:49For the spirit of Christmas is inside us all.
22:54It's the spirit of giving for one and for all.
23:19If Christmas is so special, how come our folks won't even talk about it?
23:24That's exactly what we have to change.
23:29It's the patrol!
23:30Let's be here!
23:39The Christmas patrol were suspicious of the children in the street.
23:43Fortunately for Bear, he recognized the town bully and was anxious to question him.
23:53Meanwhile, a sad Samuel returned home.
23:56Dreading telling his family how his kindness had cost him a week's pay.
24:08Margaret!
24:09Children!
24:10I'm home!
24:12We couldn't leave Angela out in the cold.
24:15So we snuck her inside last night.
24:20It's tame, they assured me.
24:23Look, I know you're trying to do the right thing, but we just can't extend help to someone else right.
24:29Since when can't we scrape together some food and a warm bed for a stranger?
24:33Since I lost a week's pay.
24:36Oh no!
24:38We'll be lucky if we make it through the week as it is.
24:40We'll make it, we always do.
24:42And we'll even make it with Angela.
24:45Daddy, this could be a Christmas present to her.
24:48Christmas?
24:50Who's been talking about Christmas?
24:53I'm the one who mentioned it.
24:55I thought Ironville could use some Christmas spirit.
25:02Mr. Matthew, a young girl with brown hair, brown eyes, and ragged clothes was seen selling holly for Christmas in
25:11the square yesterday.
25:13Have you seen such a girl?
25:17I... I...
25:18This young man claims he saw her enter your house.
25:22I did.
25:23I saw her go home with Marion and Bobby.
25:27There she is!
25:31Come with me, young lady.
25:33Mr. Covet wishes to speak to you.
25:44Now, let's start with first things first.
25:49Who are you?
25:51And where do you come from?
25:53My name is Angela, and I, uh, come from far away.
26:01Most helpful.
26:03Now then, it has been reported that you were trying to sell Christmas holly in the square yesterday.
26:11Do you deny those charges?
26:14No, sir. I was there for several hours, but nobody would buy.
26:19Young lady, do you have any idea what you've done?
26:23I'm just trying to bring Christmas back to Ironville.
26:26Oh, is that all?
26:28Then you might as well say you're just trying to destroy me!
26:33Oh, no, Mr. Covet.
26:35I would never want that.
26:37It just seems to me that this town would be a happier place with the Christmas spirit.
26:42Can you hold it in your hands?
26:44Can you count it?
26:45Can you spend it to buy food and clothing?
26:48Of course not!
26:49And do you know why?
26:51Because it isn't real, that's why.
26:55But it is real.
26:56It's something you feel inside.
26:58Nonsense!
26:59The only things I feel are these.
27:06Then I feel sorry for you.
27:08Sorry for me?
27:10Well, you'll feel sorrier for yourself when I get through with you!
27:19What does he mean?
27:28Angela felt she would never bring Christmas to Ironville.
27:32But even worse, she worried what D.D. Covet had in store for her.
27:43Following orders, Bear took Angela to the Matthew household for her final goodbyes.
27:52You'll have to leave now.
27:55Mr. Covet has ordered that you be gone from Ironville by sunset.
28:00Does this mean we're moving back to those dreadful woods?
28:08Goodbye, and thank you for your kindness.
28:11I'll never forget you.
28:15There must be something we can do.
28:22Angela!
28:29Hey, Angela!
28:30Angela!
28:43I'm leaving you here.
28:45Remember, you mustn't come back.
28:49I know you did what you had to.
28:52Here.
28:53I've brought you some scraps of food.
28:56Take him.
28:58Thank you, Bear Hoskins.
29:00Thank you, Bear Hoskins.
29:09It's getting dark.
29:11We'd better find shelter before nightfall.
29:13Maybe someplace with a hot bath and steaming food served on silver platters.
29:19Please try to remember you're a wolf, not the royal prince.
29:23Well, what's wrong with a little culture?
29:25On a night like this, I'd settle for a straw mattress.
29:31Over there, I see something.
29:33Just my luck.
29:35A stable.
29:39Just when it all looked most bleak, fate had smiled on Angela and provided her with proper shelter for the
29:46cold night ahead.
29:51By one man's heartless decree, Angela's mission to bring Christmas to Ironville had been thwarted, and she now faced an
29:59uncertain future.
30:07Where's your manners, you uncivilized pig?
30:12Tomorrow, let's find some shelter befitting my breeding.
30:16Tomorrow, I'll be gone.
30:18What are you saying?
30:20I failed, Wilfred.
30:22I'll never bring Christmas to Ironville.
30:25You're giving up?
30:27Then it's you who's forgotten what Christmas is all about.
30:31What do you mean?
30:33Angela, do you remember the very first Christmas?
30:37Of course.
30:38Then tell me the story again.
30:41Why?
30:42I don't see what...
30:45All right.
30:48One day, a long time ago, a man named Joseph and his wife Mary, who was expecting her first child,
30:56traveled to a town called Bethlehem.
31:00But when they arrived, there was no place for them to spend the night.
31:12One innkeeper took pity on them and offered his stable for shelter.
31:19And just in time, for that night, Mary's baby was born.
31:25And people came to celebrate his birth and his love for mankind.
31:30And that love is the spirit of Christmas.
31:36You were right, Wilfred.
31:38I had forgotten that real love and caring means never deserting your friends.
31:43Ironville needs Christmas, and I'm going to bring it back to them.
31:47Great!
31:52She's spending the night in an abandoned stable.
31:55I sent my patrol to keep an eye on her, just in case she decides to sneak back into town.
32:03Excellent work, Bear.
32:05Thanks to you, there'll be no Christmas in Ironville this year.
32:14Didi Covert was confident that his problems were over.
32:18But Bear couldn't help but wonder if they had really seen the last of Angela.
32:26The next morning, deep in the forest, Angela was already at work on a bold new plan to bring the
32:33Christmas spirit back to Ironville.
32:36So how are you going to bring Christmas to Ironville?
32:39This butt will do.
32:41I don't mean to be nosy, but can you at least give me a hint?
32:46Okay.
32:47Look around and tell me which evergreen tree is the most perfect.
32:52From my years of experience in these woods, I would say...
32:56That one.
32:57Yes, it's wonderful.
32:59Now, help me cut it down.
33:02But why?
33:04Because we're going to make the most beautiful Christmas tree this town has ever seen.
33:09Ha ha ha ha ha!
33:10How absolutely ingenious.
33:13When everyone sees it, they'll know Christmas is back.
33:17Then let's get started.
33:19We must have it up and decorated in the town square by Christmas Eve.
33:23But there's only two of us.
33:26We can help!
33:29What are you doing here?
33:30We couldn't let you leave us like that.
33:33So we came to find you and bring you home.
33:35Yeah.
33:36Ironville needs Christmas.
33:38And if anyone's going to bring it back, it'll have to be us.
33:41Yeah!
33:43All right.
33:44Then let's get to work.
33:58She left early this morning.
34:01She took axes.
34:02And a cart.
34:04The girl's up to no good.
34:07Whatever she's planning must be stopped.
34:12Bear Hoskins was determined to prevent Angela and her friends from ever bringing Christmas
34:17to Ironville.
34:18And so we had to find her before it was too late.
34:24Meanwhile, Angela and her friends had found the perfect Christmas tree and couldn't wait
34:29to set it up in the middle of the town square.
34:37It's a little harder!
34:43Oh no!
34:48Quickly!
34:49This ice won't hold the weight much longer!
34:53You can't do that!
34:56The ice is breaking up!
34:58Ow!
34:59Ow!
35:00Ah!
35:08We're lucky the rope held.
35:10Not that lucky.
35:12There goes your Christmas tree!
35:15No!
35:21I can still save it.
35:28Just pull this in when I attach the other end to the tree.
35:36Ah!
35:41Mommy!
35:43Help me!
35:45I'm slipping!
35:52I'm slipping!
36:13Here!
36:26If I didn't see it with my own eyes.
36:31Bobby!
36:40A Christmas tree.
36:44What do we do now?
36:53We'll help you get a new one, won't we men?
36:56Yes, sir!
36:59Bear Hoskins and his patrol had finally come to their senses.
37:03For the first time they had felt the Christmas spirit and pledged to help bring it to Ironville.
37:11With Bear's help, Angela and her friends found an even more perfect tree.
37:16But they had to act fast before D.D. Covert could stop them.
37:28It's so clear that maybe they could stop.
37:29I have a McQueen Laugh.
37:30All亂
37:30Let's go ten.
37:31Wanna Bobby them?
37:36You won't work?
37:39You won't work?
37:43I won't work with all the Soloia.
37:47Let's go ten.
37:47Let's go ten.
37:47Let's go ten.
37:49Stalinger's not long where you are?
38:04You're going to burn that Christmas tree, Bear?
38:07Nope. I'm helping them put it up.
38:10What about Covent? Christmas is still canceled.
38:14It's time we stopped worrying about him.
38:18Daddy!
38:22Yeah! Let's do it then!
38:25Let's decorate the tree!
38:29Come on!

40:01A Christmas tree in my town.
40:08Bear Hoskins, my Christmas patrol.
40:14I've been betrayed, and it's all that little girl's fault.
40:22I saved these lights for 25 years.
40:27I knew they'd come in handy one day.
40:39Never, not as long as I live.
40:46Farewell to Christmas now and...
40:50FOREVER!
41:03So, you all think you can disobey me, eh?
41:08Well, I've got news for you.
41:11Pull this tree down at once,
41:14or I'll close the factory and move it to another town.
41:19Then where will you be, hmm?
41:23Can't you see your precious Christmas is over?
41:28Ha, its lights have all gone out.
41:31Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
41:33Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
41:59Bear, tell me, what am I feeling?
42:02I've never experienced anything like this before.
42:07I think they call it wonder, Mr. Covent.
42:12Yes, that's it.
42:15Wonder, what a wonderful feeling.
42:19Samuel, did you know that I'm feeling positively wonderful?
42:25Oh, Margaret, you look absolutely wonderful.
42:44Hello, hello, Merry Christmas.
42:48Oh, so very Merry Christmas.
42:55For you.
42:57And for you.
43:01Oh, you love this.
43:04I wanted this one for myself.
43:09And what can I give an angel for Christmas?
43:16The most precious thing I have.
43:19My heart.
43:27Sing Alleluia, sing Alleluia, sing Alleluia on Christmas Day.
43:38Sing Alleluia, sing Alleluia, sing Alleluia on Christmas Day.
43:50Christmas Day, Christmas Day, Christmas Day.
44:05Oh, you love this.
44:12Flake Alleluia, sing Alleluia on Christmas Day.
44:13The most precious прич Life, the manyraday and Marie Qu trzeas.
44:13Yeah, it's magical to bear to me.
44:13Oh, so reflect that when I share a story with me again?
44:13Oh, my God.
