Film Synopsis
A young boy lives with his mother and grandfather in a château,
where he loves to play with his electronic games. His mother is
the owner of a large shop which, on Christmas Eve, employs a
suspicious-looking man as Father Christmas. When he has a row
with a customer, the man is dismissed. He swears he will have his
revenge and climbs into the lorry that takes the toys to the
château. The boy is delighted to come face-to-face with
Father Christmas, not yet realising that he is in fact a dangerous
psychopath...

The very best of German cinema
German cinema was at its most inspired in the 1920s, strongly influenced by the expressionist movement, but it enjoyed a renaissance in the 1970s.
Continental Films, quality cinema under the Nazi Occupation
At the time of the Nazi Occupation of France during WWII, the German-run company Continental produced some of the finest films made in France in the 1940s.
American film comedy had its heyday in the 1920s and '30s, but it remains an important genre and has given American cinema some of its enduring classics.
