Stars: Matthew Harbour, Tom Skerrit, Ellen Burstyn, Kevin Jubinville, Una Kay, Jane Seymour,
Toby (Harbour) is a lonely, neglected child. His workaholic father John (Jubinville) sends him to his grandmother Ellen's (Kay) home for the holidays. When Toby discovers his grandmother's attic is full of toys, he is delighted. And then he finds a box with his name on it and inside is gift from his long-dead mother- a stuffed Rabbit. This rabbit immediately becomes Toby's best friend, and then Toby makes a delightful discovery: his toys are real! They come to life when he plays with them!
As Toby enjoys his make-believe world (which is demonstrated in the movie by being animation, which I think is very neat!), his real world gets better as well, when his grandmother begins to truly love him. She tries to make Christmas a wonderful experience for him, but all Toby wants is his father at home with him on Christmas.
This movie makes me cry SO much! It's so beautiful! If you haven't seen it, you are in for a treat. And don't forget the tissues!
