A Collection of Carols (1946)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
Cheaply produced but mildly entertaining short has six Christmans songs (O Come All Ye Faithful, The First Noel, It Came Upon a Midnight Clear, Joy to the World, Hark! The Herald Angels Sing, Silent Night) by a group of kids. That's pretty much all there is to this short as we're just given generic things going on in the background and the majority of the time the camera is just set on those doing the singing. On a technical levels there's certainly nothing too impressive about this film as it's clear they were working on a very small budget. The film is mainly going to be for film buffs wanting to check out any Christmas short they can or people simply wanting to hear some music for the holidays. For the most part I thought all six songs were performed pretty well as there's at least nothing bad or anything that will make you want to hit the mute button.
