So, 'Love Is a Bread of Nine Crusts' is a bit of an oddity from 1990, a New Yearās Eve musical short that leaves an impression. The tone is whimsical, like a playful dream, with vibrant songs interspersed throughout. What stands out is its atmosphereāalmost a theatrical vibe, which really captures that festive spirit. The pacing is tight; it moves quickly but allows just enough time for the audience to savor each quirky performance. It's not just about the music, thoughāthere's this underlying theme of togetherness and renewal that works surprisingly well for the holiday setting. The practical effects, while modest, add to its charm, making it a unique slice of television history.
This TV movie is a bit of a rarity in the collector's world, having been released primarily on television and not significantly distributed in physical formats. The scarcity of copies makes it a point of interest for those who appreciate niche musical shorts from that era. Given its unique blend of music and holiday cheer, it often intrigues collectors who enjoy offbeat thematic pieces, but finding it in good condition can be quite a challenge.
