In English • Have Christmas in October with the entertaining odd couple, farmer Pettson and his mischievous cat Findus. The Swedish equivalent of Santa Claus or a Christmas elf is the Tomte. When Findus complains that the Tomte never visits him, the always sympathetic and accommodating Pettson decides to build a mechanical Tomte to surprise his feline friend. Pettson's mechanical wizardry doesn't seem to be enough to do the trick, though, and as Christmas approaches, he hasn't finished the project. That's when more than a few miracles happen. This is the third of the Pettson and Findus animated features based on the books by Sven Nordqvist, and if you haven't seen one, you have a real surprise coming. Gentle, quietly funny and thoughtful, this tremendously enjoyable cartoon pair will capture every child's heart. All Ages. — J. Morrison
