Mr. Willowby's Christmas Tree

[Also available: The Great Santa Claus Switch]

Join Robert Downey Jr., Kermit the Frog, Leslie Nielsen, Stockard Channing and a family of Muppet mice for this 1995 Christmas special.

Based on Robert Barry's 1963 book, our story follows a family of mice living in the wealthy and eccentric Mr. Willowby's house. They decide to start the hunt for the perfect Christmas tree (namely, chopping off the top of the perfect tree Mr. Willowby has brought home). However, while they continually attempt to take their piece of tree, the top of the tree is passed around from humans to animals, each one taking just enought of the tree to make it the perfect size for them. Through this adventure, the mice see how others celebrate Christmas, and Mr. Willowby's friends and employees learn a little about Christmas magic too.

Directed by longtime Sesame Street creative director Jon Stone, this otherwise-unavailable special is featured here in full DVD quality for the first time in English.

And while it's not the most popular of Muppet holiday specials, there's plenty more here on the DVD to make your holidays warmer and brighter.

Special Features:

- Portuguese dubbed version

- Entertainment Tonight 1987 - Interview with Kermit the Frog and Jim Henson about A Muppet Family Christmas.

- Perry Como's Kraft Music Hall, December 20, 1965 - A sketch starring Muppet reindeer, including a funny cameo by Jim Henson.
