A Christmas to Remember

(I've put enough negative reviews here on Hallmark Christmas movies, so I really need to comment on one that I like.)

By keeping the story small--meaning just the family spending time in the house with the few forays into town--there weren't opportunities for multiple implausibilities. I know that's a negative way to put it, but by contrast with other Hallmark Christmas movies I've seen, this one didn't have so many distractions. Mira Sorvino is very winsome in her role. It's easy to see how this family would come to love her. And Cameron Mathison plays the suitably low-key , gentle, and supportive man a lost woman would be glad to have helping her in such a situation.

This was such a sweet movie. I loved the somewhat different storyline then most Christmas movies and I loved the sweet kids in the movie!

I really enjoyed the band at the Christmas Party but I cannot find a credit for them.

Loved this movie - for the third time.

Favorite line - Paula: "Brad is your boyfriend." Maggie: "I don't think so."

Love this movie. I just read on IMDb that Cameron Mathison just had surgery for kidney cancer. Prayers sent his way.
