Old Christmas Movie where Santa gets put in jail?
The movie I'm thinking of has to be at least 20 years old. I saw on TV as a kid and I loved it. All I remember is Santa is delivering presents to this one house and he sets off the burgular alarm and the parents send him to jail. Their son finds santa's sleigh outside his bedroom window and goes to break santa out of jail. around the end, the sherif is chasing down the sleigh with Santa and the boy in it, and he goes and tries to cut them off, and of course at the last second the sleigh comes off the ground and goes flying over the car. I also remember that when they took Santa's fingerprints, nothing showed up on the paper. Anyone know what this movie is called???

Are you sure that it wasn't the tv show "Amazing Stories"? It aired in 1985 .
This was a nice sentimental story, even if it was predictable in the end. It was a good Christmas story and ran, of course, in the middle of December in 1985. It would have been a great show to air on Christmas Eve.
Douglas Seale is excellent as Santa Claus, who winds up in jail on a "breaking and entering" charge! Pat Hingle plays the sheriff who arrests him and a man who desperately needs a little dose of Christmas spirit. The best character in here, to me, was "Deputy Weatherbey (Marvin McIntyre). He didn't have a big role but his role had the most warmth to it, outside of Mr. and Mrs. Clause, of course, and thus the most appropriate for the story.
On the whole, this story had a lot of charm to it, as well as humor
