This was a cute old movie I watched the other night. It had Richard Carlson, Jean Parker, C. Aubrey Smith, and Charles Winniger in it. Some old character actors I have seen before but not really popular. It is the story of three rich old men who got together at Christmas. On a fluke, they each put $10 in a wallet and throw it out the window to the passers-by in the street to see if any bring them back. Of the two, a young man and woman, who do they become good friends with? The two young ones fall in love. The three old men die in an airplane wreck but they come back as ghosts to help the two young ones in their lives. This a sweet feel-good fantasy movie and I think it will be on my annual holiday movie list for years to come.

Sounds like one of those movies you start watching and then just have to see how it ends, I though that the only Christmas ghost story was about Scrooge,

Oh,I think there are these types of movies but they have angels in them. I think the first one was Scrooge but several came after it.
