Music Box brings gift of joy/jazz
Posted by tom | Jan 19, 2009Are you familiar with The Music Box (Copyright 1980, White Lion Pictograph. Length: 28 Min)? I came across it as part of a discussion group and thought others might find it of interest, particularly as you seek to share the joy of Christ in your daily life.
Webpage description: One of the most highly acclaimed short Christian films of all time, MUSIC BOX is a classic film that has been enjoyed by millions all over the world.
MUSIC BOX is a parable, a simple story with a special meaning. It's about a weary man who lives in a cold lifeless city. He has a boring job and is unconnected to his family. One day everything changes. In a snowy alley, he receives the gift of a magical music box.((A man trudging home from work through a dreary, snowy city is surprised by a joyous group of gospel-singing, tuxedoed angels. They give a special gift of love and life to the man: a magical box and the wondrous story of a loving king.((MUSIC BOX is a modern parable of the joy-filled life in Christ, and our responsibilities to share the joy.((In the tradition of Christ's parables and the allegorical fiction of C.S. Lewis, MUSIC BOX is a must for anyone who needs a little "Hallelujah" amid the "Ho-Hum."
Seen by millions, this comical award-winning film will keep you laughing -- while teaching a vivid lesson about how we use or misuse God's gifts.

Hi, I saw The Music Box in youth group back in the 70's and have been looking for it. Please verifu that this is about the assembly line worker who lives a very dull life until finding the music box which brings joy into his life. I tried to click on your link but could not open it. Where can I view this?
Thanks,
