Deborah Character Analysis

As usual, I had to a do a little research to discover who played some of the minor characters, and I did ascertain that while this cast has some notable and recognized professionals, there are also several outstanding newcomers. Thankfully, all the actors and actresses work together to make this another of my favorites of the holiday season. In fact, at the end of this film, I declared that this is unmistakably my kind of film.
No stranger to the screen, Deborah gives a blissfully magnificent performance as Mrs. Hinden, the one who is sympathetic to Allie 's plight.

While I 'm fairly sure I have seen him here and there, this will be the performance for which I shall cherish him.

Allie speaks her mind to Max, and as he tells her later, "not many people speak their mind around here." And that is something he appreciates about her. In Allie 's case, it is more the fact that she looks past who he is on the exterior and sees the authentic man who has been shrouded for so long by doing what is "right" and "keeping up appearances." In truth, a vibrant, spirited, charitable man lives beneath the frosty exterior of King Maximilian, and it is Allie who almost instantly slices through the icy layers to reveal the man inside. This is demonstrated through all their interactions together, but my favorite is the snowball scene--hands
