"Charlie Brown on the Screen"
In 1965, "A Charlie Brown Christmas" was first seenontelevision, and it told the story of our hero confronted with yetanother problem. Good grief! Christmas is coming and he's not happy. As he explains to his friend, Linus, no one is thinking about the true meaning of the holiday. His sister, Sally, is only concerned about the presents she will get; his friend Lucy wants to buy a "big, shiny, aluminum Christmas tree"; even his dog Snoopy enters his doghouse in a contest for the best-deorated house in the neighborhood. When Charlie Brown is persuaded to direct the school Christmas pageant, he declares "This is one play that's not going to be commercial!"...~PEANUTS: A GOLDEN CELEBRATION
