Christmas Mountain (1981) is a movie I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline for this picture is around a cattleman down on his luck. He is wrongfully accused of a crime and found guilty. The town offers to set him free if he agrees to make a Christmas run up the local mountain to a poor family to provide them with items that have been donated by the community. He takes the offer and rides up the mountain where he finds a prideful family that could use some help and resources.
This movie is directed by Pierre De Moro (Hellhole) and stars Slim Pickens (Blazing Saddles), Mark Miller (A Walk in the Clouds), Tina Menard (The Nevada), Fran Ryan (Pale Rider) and Barbara Stanger (The Streets of San Francisco).
There's some crazy foreigners conversation in this that definitely surprised me. The settings and backdrops are beautiful and I loved the depiction and delivery of the characters, The opening dinner scene is very good as is the dialogue and overall premise. I can't say the Cowboy Angel worked for me, but I still enjoyed the movie.
Overall this is far from a Christmas classic but is a unique holiday film. I would score this a 6/10 and recommend it if you're looking for something different.
