And now we're going to buy the whole city! There are many different expressions about the importance of money. Many great people have said that happiness is not in them, that you cannot buy sincere love and health for them. But Christmas in July is exactly the opposite. Money is necessary for the happiness of a simple mortal because, if there are few, around him will always fly the numbers that he needs and that he does not have.
This is exactly what the main character Jim was. He has everything wrapped in amounts, prices, money. Although if you think about it, he has everything: a family, a girlfriend and a job, not dreams, of course, but worth it. Jim is not deprived of talents, he just does not know where to apply them. And one day, because of someone else’s prank, he becomes a millionaire! Now he has money, so he can afford a lot without thinking about it. Is that the most important thing in life? In fact, the characters behave in the film is not quite adequate, but maybe they have an excess of energy and joy.
Jim always wants a lot, but he can't get it. But everyone knows, be it the 40s in the yard or 2016, that you need to live on income. But Jim's dreams are at the level of the president of the United States, so he goes out of his way to get money. He was very lucky with the second half of Betty. She turned out to be a prudent girl and the only one who pleased with the appearance in the frame. The actors played well, but the feeling of full saturation with their game did not happen.
"Christmas in July" refers to the New Year's movies, but the sought-after Christmas magic in this film is not. It is quite philosophical, raises a topical question now, but... But the film is for once and it is up to you to decide when this time comes.
