Directed by Delbert Mann
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Turner Classic Movies)
Dick Van Dyke plays a butler who steals from department stores (mainly) to keep his employer, a senile old lady, living in luxury. He's got the entire household helping him plan and execute elaborate thefts, including the big one on Christmas Eve at Gimbel's. Barbara Feldon is the love interest who figures out what they are doing but ends up joining them. I didn't really buy into the motivation and it tends to emphasize the greedy side of Christmas.
