Lights, Camera, Christmas!

After watching one and abandoning another disappointing Christmas movie today, we began watching Lights, Camera, Christmas! With a bit of trepidation. Could it be a three strikes day?

LCC took a big swing at the next pitch and hit a home run. I think it's a bit brave, as this movie is very self-aware of making Hallmark Christmas movies and is an utter satire of the process.

Since it's comedy satire, the characters are allowed to go over the top ... and they do ... but they don't abuse it. We found many chuckle moments and an occasional surprised laugh out loud.

The stealth romance is the producer and director, a successful filmmaking couple who split up and talk through an intermediary, even though they're standing right beside each other. Will agreements in making this movie bring them back together? Watch and find out!
