Noel (film)

Noel is a 2004 Christmasthemed drama film written by David Hubbard and directed by Chazz Palminteri. It stars Susan Sarandon, Penlope Cruz, Paul Walker, Alan Arkin, Daniel Sunjata and an uncredited Robin Williams. It was filmed in Montreal, Canada.

The main character is Rose Susan Sarandon, a woman who is struggling to cope with caring for her mother, an Alzheimers patient. Meanwhile, Nina Penlope Cruz and Mike Paul Walker are a young couple on the verge of breaking up due to Mikes increasingly jealous behavior. Elsewhere, Artie Alan Arkin is an old waiter who searches for his deceased wife every Christmas Eve. Finally, Jules Marcus Thomas is a young man who deliberately damages his hand so he can attend a Christmas party in the emergency room, as that was the only happy memory of his childhood. In addition to the five main characters, the mysterious Charlie Robin Williams is introduced as the person who may be able to help Rose finally realize that she must look after herself more, rather than worrying about everyone else.
