Noel – Engel in Manhattan (2004)

Noel – Engel in Manhattan: Directed by Chazz Palminteri. With Susan Sarandon, Paul Walker, Penélope Cruz, Alan Arkin. Five New Yorkers come together on Christmas Eve, seeking a miracle.

“It is my favorit Chistmas theme film. for many reasons who, year by year, are more and more. first – as puzzle of gray lives. the second – for forms of love. not the last – for moral lessons, many not real profound or credible but useful for easy demonstrations about the structure of relationships. sure, it could be defined as forced, naive or childish, as sketch of serious film or as film using the Christmas only as pretext. but it has all the virtues to be one of expected films by viewer . for cast, off course. for Paul Walken , especially. for angels. and for the encouraging message. and, maybe, for its special beauty. like an Renaissance angel. so, for me, a special, real special film.”
