1962's THE BIG DOWNTOWN CHRISTMAS presents a child exploring downtown Chicago in the holiday season

Okay, so the narration by our lead young man (Burton Moore, though the boy is played in the film by Eric Bettelheim) is a bit grating, but Charles D. Sharp's short shows off the Chicago Loop in the early '60s to great effect, serving as a Chicago Christmas equivalent to 1953's LITTLE FUGITIVE.
