An Old Fashioned Thanksgiving is inspired by Louisa May Alcott’s beloved short story. On a poor New Hampshire farm in 1860’s America, family ties are tested during the Thanksgiving holiday when a wealthy, bitter woman pays an unexpected visit to her estranged daughter and grandchildren. As she attempts to control the family with money and social influence, secrets of the past are revealed—ones that could tear the family apart forever, or finally reunite it for a long-awaited, old-fashioned Thanksgiving.

Nice and heartwarming movie
A wonderful Story of Love Family and Survival , Best scene all the family at the dinner table and Gratitud to our Lord God that provides for all of us. Thank you for sharing this movie
Thank you for sharing. I loved everything about this movie, especially the little boy, took me right back to the Jane Austen stories 😊.
I really enjoyed this movie – it's so refreshing to be able to watch a wholesome film with no violence & sex. The story was also believable with a happy ending.
I love this movie! Thank you for uploading it. 💕
Loved this 👌

Thank you for sharing this beautiful movie of selflessness. This is what the body of Christ should look like. This movie warmed my heart. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone and May your homes be filled abundantly with joy, peace, prosperity and most of all the love of Christ in Jesus mighty name, Amen!
Lovely movie. Thanknyou
Sweet movie. I loved it!!
What pride the daughter has. She can barely look after her kids n still unforgiving.

This is the movie I wanted to see just before Thanksgiving. I noticed the resemblance to 'Little Women', and surprise, surprise, it was written by Louisa May Alcott. Thanks for sharing this wonderful "old fashioned" movie with us all.
We love this movie. Thanks for making it available. There is a sequel to this. OLD FASHIONED CHRISTMAS 🎄❤
Very good movie of love and forgiveness.
Finally a clear upload of this amazing movie!!!
Excellent !
Well done!!!!!! It brought to mind the strife between strong women in families and how they relate to one another even when there is love between them. Nothing like two Alfa hens in a coup let alone three!!!!! The lovely Jaqueline Bisset never grows old. I remember her in the movie The Deep so many years ago. We should remember people change and learn, well at least some do and for the better. Wars, epidemics, The Great Depression, famines, hard Winters brought out a strong will to survive, in some to unite, to push through to the other side where so many could no longer go.
SO WONDERFULY TOUCHING!
Hopelessly romantic, yet…
the violin and piano music melt my heart
I bet they needed Vit A, C, & D + zinc, etc… So sad that nutritional knowledge is suppressed NOW because the scientists & docs make NO money from food & herbs. Sad.
Great story! Only they could have fast forward at the end to show Tiily coming back to marry Gabriel 💜Happy Thanksgiving 2022 🦃
Excellent movie!!!
Mathilda Bassett (Tilly) praying over the dinner:
Thanks for the roses by the wayside.
Thanks for thorns their stems contain.
Thanks for home and thanks for fireside.
Thanks for hope, that sweet refrain. Amen.
So many wonderful lessons to be reminded of….family, faith and forgiveness. ❤
There is another movie that continues the story of her going abroad with her grandmother. It is called an old fashioned Christmas. Some of the original actors/actresses are in it. I enjoyed it well enough but the first one is the best. If they made another one, I would like to see it where she comes home and gets married and what she does with her life and the outcome of her siblings.
Wonderful
Beautiful. Family is family regardless of differences and disappointments. We all live by grace, faith, and hope, and need to embrace love and a thankful heart with the ones we love and who love us.
I would’ve appreciated a sequel to this movie.
How wonderful would it be to have a mature beautiful woman return fr abroad to her little town, full of culture n charm. Their wedding the talk of the town. Maybe a female rival has been attempting to muscle in on her beau. Her sister is much older n has a child? Maybe n her brother is older n has decided to be like his dad n will work the fields as his thanksgiving spirit showed he was the man of the house.
Even a sequel movie of all of her adventures n the people especially young men that she meets from many countries that she’s interested in??
Those were trying yet beautiful times when people genuinely care about one another’s wellbeing. I loved the lovely vintage dresses, hats and burnt out shawls very classy. The main cast consist of charming looking people. The whole story line was well narrated and everyone did a great job of acting even the little ones. This movie was very pleasant to watch, good for the soul with great moral values to live by. Thank You for sharing, God bless you and keep you safe in Jesus Name Amen 🙏 😊
Watch to the end …it is a clean, insightful wholesome movie for the whole family.
I enjoyed the video
Escape into a sweet enclave of thanksgiving!
Good movie I wish they would have been a part 2, showing Gideon and Matilda reunited.
Found this boring and predictable parts are borrowed from Little Women: right down to the Scarlet fever and giving away their holiday feast to a poor family, again with scarlet fever
💕✝️🙂
Dommage pas de traduction en francais
I want to see the other one that continues
Exceptional!
Aww, a very sweet film. I do agree, we need a part two! Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
Part 2 and more PLEASE! Wonderful!
Wonderful movie. Thank you.
What a heart warming, charming, wholesome movie! Hélène Joy was excellent, she's an amazing actress we have loved as Dr Julia in Murdock Mysteries and as always, Ms. Bisset was brilliant. Thank you for showing this gem!!!
For those wanting a sequel…..2011's "An Old Fashioned Christmas" is said to be the sequel, now if I can find it!!
What is the continuation movie called where she finds Ellis family and Gib comes! This movie is awesome and I have enjoyed it thank you, we need more family movies like this!
Beautiful Story, so looking forward with imagination as to its Continuity 💖🌄🙏😘☺️
