Finding John Christmas (2003) with Peter Falk

This is another RARE Christmas movie. This is part of a trilogy that is impossible to find. This is the 2nd film of the trilogy. Please see my other videos for the 1st and 3rd.
Peter Falk is featured in the trilogy of Christmas TV movies in which he plays Max, the underestimated angel that works to bring people together for the holiday.
All three movies are uplifting Christmas stories that include the angel Max who usually takes on several guises to provide the main characters the support and encouragement they need to do the right thing. There's usually a touch of magic and the feeling of fate's hand guiding people in the right direction. Falk's Max is eccentric, all-knowing and persistent--not unlike Columbo. It's a real treat to see his familiar face and his way of doing what he does best--in these feel-good holiday stories.
The second in the series of three films is 2003's Finding John Christmas which stars Valerie Bertinelli. In this story, a photojournalist snaps a photo of an anonymous man, down on his luck at the holiday, which runs in the local newspaper.
Kathleen, played by Bertinelli, recognizes the photo as her long lost brother and contacts the journalist. The public is moved by the photo in the newspaper and there’s a movement to find the stranger in the photo labeled ‘John Christmas.' Unfortunately, he doesn’t want to be found.

@@KevsGuide There is one more movie called a Town without Christmas. These movies all have Peter Falk as an angel named Max. I don't know if it is a trilogy. You can watch one movie by it self or all three. The movies aired in 2001, 2002 and so on. I just like them all.

Has anyone else taken note of the fact that though the inestimable Peter Falk had a physical aspect that was not 'perfect' (his slightly crossed eyes), which didn't fit the Hollywood conformist mode of 'handsome', yet he worked with his craft to use that very aspect to engage his audience and endear himself to generations? Talk about taking a lemon and making lemonade! Gosh, I wish I could have been his friend. From all accounts of people whose lives brushed up against his, he was, and is, a Prince among men. Thank you for posting such a tribute to Peter. I also thank Valerie Bertinelli and William Russ (a HUGELY unrecognized consummate storyteller ---- the fireman), for their pitch-perfect portrayals.

PurpleStilettos how is that even possible in an age where information is at your fingertips 24/7 with retired cops and military turned PIs out the wazoo and where 50% of the teen population can hack the FBI???? - put those sexy hot purple "do me" pumps on and GET TO SEARCHING!!!!!! Someone, somewhere knows SOMETHING that will put you on the right path - my mother lost touch with a friend she had back in 1960 and in 1995, 35 years later, knowing nothing but her husbands last name in 1960 and last place of residence (NW FL) I found her in another state (W VA), remarried under a new name in UNDER 3 hours and all it cost me was my time on a computer and on the phone. A close friend had searched for her birth father for 30 years and all she knew was he was a biker that ran with the Outlaws the last she knew anything (her birth mother could only recall his first name and the approximate year she had last hear he was eith the Outlaws) - it took us about a week to find out that he had been killed in a drug deal gone sideways - and it took that long because they operate with burn phones and largely off the grid so we had to go visit their clubhouses (THAT was interesting but they were VERY respectful and kind - I'm old enough to be their grandmother and I was really impressed with how polite they were and how hard they tried to watch their language) -- just DIG IN with what you have - hit the genealogy websites, contact EVERYONE who might have known him, nobody just vanishes unless someone (or they themselves) WANT them vanished .... and that IS a possibility. GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY HUNTING

Some of his crew's bodies were found headless and already in a decomposition stage. The company owners were japanese and didn't cooperate much like we would expect to. We're hoping his story will end up like that of Captain Philips instead of us waiting in vain.
