To balance out my rant against Mr. Madoff today, I thought I'd share my favorite children's Christmas play scene, from the classic movie The Bells of St. Mary's (starring Bing Crosby as a priest and Ingrid Bergman as a nun). It's a must see; enjoy:

I love this. I haven't watched this movie in a long time. Ingrid Bergman is so beautiful.
Oh, yes. It is the best ever. And did you know that during the filming, they let the children actually make up what they wanted for the Christmas pageant? So much of it is totally sincere and real and spontaneous. We still watch that scene on Christmas Even, even when we are alone.
Nothing like Bing and Ingrid to make you long for a good movie and a warm blanket. I LOVE this movie.
