The Forgotten Carols (Review)

I was a little skeptical when I heard they were making a movie of the play The Forgotten Carols. It is so good on stage, but a movie?  Well I was wrong.  It was amazing!  I had seen it when I was a little girl and didn’t really remember it.  My husband and I went a couple of years ago and loved it.  I remember wishing I could take my kids to see it, but it was expensive and not in the budget to take all 7 of us.  So when I saw it on Living Scriptures I watched the Trailer and was excited to share it with my family! 

We watched the show on Sunday as a family and my kids loved it!  I wasn’t sure they would like it because they don’t love musicals as much as I do, but they really liked it and I saw a couple of them tearing up over it! My 15 year old son that night during our family gratitudes said how grateful he was we watched the Forgotten Carols because it was awesome!  I hope they take the message of it and remember the true meaning of the birth of Christ and Christmas!

Synopsis – The Forgotten Carols stage performance tells the story of Connie Lou, a nurse whose empty life is changed when Uncle John, a new patient she is attending, recounts the story of Christ’s birth as told by little known characters in the nativity story. The accounts from the Innkeeper, the Shepherd and others help the nurse discover what the world has forgotten about Christmas, ultimately encouraging her to open her heart to the joy of this special season.

You can buy the movie or watch it on Living Scriptures for $19.99!
