A Christmas Memory

When Buddy (Eric Lloyd, THE SANTA CLAUSE 3) is abandoned by his parents at the age of seven, he is dumped in the south at the small-town home of some older unmarried cousins. Without friends of his own age, Buddy develops a close friendship with one of the older, simpler ladies, Sook (Patty Duke, THE PATTY DUKE SHOW) and the two undertake many adventures together. At Christmas time, they bake 31 fruit-cakes which they give as Christmas presents, even mailing them to President Roosevelt and Jean Harlowe! Although Buddy is eventually urged to move on with his life by his incessant cousin Jennie (Piper Laurie, CARRIE), the memories of his friendship with Sook lives with him forever. Based on the original novel by Truman Capote, a heartwarming story of love and friendship.
