Mr. Krueger's Christmas is a 1980 American Christmas short television film produced by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, starring James Stewart, directed by Kieth Merrill, with story by Michael H. McLean, and featuring the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.
Willy Krueger is a widowed apartment janitor who lives in a basement flat with his cat George.
On a cold Christmas Eve, he daydreams to escape his lonely life: he muses about being a man of culture and means, an ice dance at Temple Square, a sleigh ride, as well as the conductor of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, and also imagines himself in the stable with Mary, Joseph and the infant Jesus.
