WARNING: This Article May Contain Spoilers For those who have been reading this blog for a while, you will be aware that I have discussed the different types of Christmas films that exist.

Farewell to the Master
WARNING: This Review May Contain Spoilers OK, yes I said it before but then if I broke the promise once who’s to say I wasn’t going to break it again. However, I guess a short story doesn’t really count right? As you can guess, these films are based on the short story Farewell to the …
