After all the disastrous attempts at a live action nutcracker film, it makes me appreciate this stage production film even more! Not only is it the best dancing of the nutcracker, but also has the 90's flair of Macaulay Culkin as the adorable nutcracker prince! This is a Christmas classic that I've enjoyed ever since I was a little girl. Marie was perfectly cast and gives such emotion to the role even with no words spoken.
