Mr. St. Nick ★★½ 2002

Agreeable Christmas comedy with a little twist. It seems that being Santa is a family business—each St. Nick gets 100 years on the job. The current Santa (Durning) should be settling into retirement and leaving things to Santa Jr. (Grammer) soon, but Junior's been waiting so long that he's more bah-humbug than ho-ho-ho. So, it's about time that he learned the true meaning of the holiday. 100m/C DVD . Kelsey Grammer, Charles Durning, Katherine Helmond, Brian Bedford, Elaine Hendrix, Lupe Ontiveros, Wallace Shawn, Ana Ortiz; D: Craig Zisk; W: Maryedith Burrell, Steve Hayes, Debra Frank; C: David Franco; M: John Altman.
