Santa and Pete (1999 TV Movie)
10/10
I watch it every December 5

I don't remember where I stumbled across this sweet movie. I had to find it and buy it on DVD. I now also on a digital copy on my phone so I can watch it whenever I'm feeling down.

I am a Dutch American, so the story is extra special to me. It is the story of how Sinterklaas/Saint Nicolas became Santa Claus.

There is a little historical aspect about it at the first that is touched on briefly. I love the fact that Piet is so lovable. It takes away the whole stigma of what I grew up with. I absolutely adore this Piet.

This show brings in so many aspects of the New World to create Santa Claus, new Amsterdam, the children, no longer wearing wooden shoes, the Native Americans, the governor and fruitcake LOL of all the things.

This show it may be old, but it is timeless. I love how it revolves around the sweetest family who had just lost their grandma. This show is multicultural, and it speaks to the heart. It speaks of love.

Yes, this movie makes me a great big believer in happy endings.
