The 2003 comedy “Elf” is a fun filled story about a human raised by elves trying to find his place in the world. Will Ferrell plays Buddy, a Christmas elf with a mistaken identity. His whole life he thought he was an elf, and it did not throw him off at all that he was 3 feet taller than all his pals.
Once he finally figures out that he is a human, he begins his remarkable journey of finding his father; too bad he is on the naughty list. Buddy goes to New York, finds his dad, and helps spread his Christmas cheer to help Santa.
This is a hilarious and heartfelt Christmas movie that the whole family will enjoy. The movie will air on Wednesday Dec. 7 from 9:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m., and on Thursday Dec. 8 from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Freeform.
