Basierend auf dem gleichnamigen Buch von Barbara Robinson erzählt der Film The Best Christmas Pageant Ever von den Herdman-Kindern, den schlimmsten Kindern, die man sich vorstellen kann, die eines Jahres beim kirchlichen Weihnachtsfestzug die Hauptrollen übernehmen. Doch anstatt ein großes Desaster anzurichten, geschieht ein wahres Weihnachtswunder.

00:00It's going to be the best Christmas pageant ever.
00:03That's a pageant I'd like to see.
00:10Don't miss out. The annual Christmas pageant tickets are on sale now.
00:14They're advertising it on TV now?
00:16The pageant is an especially big deal this year. It's the 75th anniversary.
00:22I want to give special mention to Grace for volunteering to direct it.
00:27You did what?
00:28Oh no. Did somebody die?
00:31It's worse than that, son.
00:32It's going to be the best Christmas pageant ever.
00:36Oh no, it's the Hermanns. Now.
00:42The Hermanns are absolutely the worst kids in the history of the world.
00:46What'd they do now, dear? Break another window?
00:50Is that something on fire?
00:52Steal your lunch and then punch you for not having any candy?
00:57No, even worse.
00:59We're going to be in your Bible play.
01:02Herdmans in church.
01:04Oh boy.
01:06We take the pageant seriously.
01:08It's about community and tradition.
01:11What do you all suggest? That I kick the Herdmans out of the church?
01:14Yes.
01:15I want to be Mary and Ralph wants to be Joe.
01:18And the angel of the Lord?
01:21Ow!
01:26The Herdmans shouldn't be here.
01:28They're a poor influence.
01:30You don't look like any Mary I've seen before.
01:33Don't touch him!
01:35I'm happy to take over the part at any time.
01:37I can't just kick him out.
01:40I thought you all might be interested in one of my stuffs.
01:43You never told me you visited the Herdmans.
01:45I got the biggest hand for you guys.
01:47Is your mom home?
01:48Not when the sun's up.
01:53What if the Hermanns ruin this for you?
01:56They probably will.
01:57But it's not about me.
01:58Jesus was born for the Herdmans as much as he was for us.
02:02We'll be missing the whole point of the story if we turn them away.
02:09Now that's a pageant I'd actually like to see.
02:11Mother Mary puffing on a cigar.
02:13Shepherds clobbering each other with their hooks.
02:17Five bucks say they burned down the manger.
