29KDie Peanuts: Fröhliche Weihnachten: Directed by Bill Melendez. With Ann Altieri, Chris Doran, Sally Dryer, Bill Melendez. Depressed at the commercialism he sees around him, Charlie Brown tries to find a deeper meaning to Christmas.
“I remember the first time that I saw this cartoon. I was about 6 or 7 years old, and I was starting to get into the Peanuts comic strips as I was learning how to read. From the first time I saw it, I knew there was something very different about this animated Christmas special that set it apart from others. Maybe it was the fact that it actually gave the true meaning of Christmas by having Linus quote Luke 2:8-14. Maybe it was able to capture charm and whit of the Peanuts comic strip by Charles Schulz. Maybe it was the jazzy background music by Vince Guaraldi. Maybe it was all the above. Iu0026#39;m gonna go with the last one. To this day I still find this Christmas special to be a very touching one.”
