![]() ![]() ![]() I believe the work was filmed on location in Alabama. The piece is narrated by Capote (sans most of his "preciousness") and just beautifully performed by the wonderful Geraldine Page and a fine youngster named Donnie Melvin. "A Christmas Memory" autobiographical- concerns the sad little boy who was Truman Capote- who is shuttled from relative to relative (he's also "Dill" in "To Kill a Mockingbird.") For several winters he stays with these particular relatives- including the rather simple Sook. ![]() One of Capote's finest short stories, his TV adaptation was an annual small-screen event in the late 60s. But, then, it probably hasn't been seen or available for years. I cannot believe this wonderful program, "A Christmas Memory," has received no votes or comments. ![]()
