The Night Before Christmas | Classic Story of Santa's Visit

(1946) THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS at nine minutes is another example of live action footage combined with vintage cartoon segments, this time by Castle Films. Castle Films distributed two dozen Christmas shorts in the 1930s and 1940s with The Night Before Christmas remaining in print for 26 years.

The film is a complete narration of the poem Twas the Night Before Christmas a Visit from St. Nicholas by Clement Clarke Moore. The father narrates the poem and, as it plays out, several cartoon segments are interspersed including dancing sugarplums while the children sleep and Santa and his reindeer flying the sleigh through the evening sky as they deliver the presents.
