Synopsis

It's Jim and Della's wedding anniversary. They're young, terribly in love, and flat broke. Finding a gift that will express the warmth and closeness they feel for each other is almost impossible. O. Henry, in this bittersweet love story, describes the gifts Della and Jim give, and the price they have to pay. Their folly, however, makes them even richer. This is a beautiful, sympathetic and warmly human account of the well-known story.
