My main gripe is, if you're gonna make a movie based around an angel one of the characters has made, cant you at least make a pretty angel? She was probably the ugliest angel I've ever seen.
Also, the female lead made so many annoying faces, and the plot was fairly predictable.
But it wasn't all bad; a watchable TV movie.

Hallmark formula done well. Fun movie. We giggled a bit when it looked like Jonathan Scarfe was going to eat Jennifer's lips every time they kissed, but all's good.
Hallmark should put Jennifer Finnigan in literally everything.

I'm not a big fan of Hallmark pseudo-Christmas movies as they tend to be little more than sophomoric romances that just happen to be around Christmas time. This one is different. It is more adult in it's treatment of relationships, well acted for the most part and there is both mystery and Christmas magic in this film. The him turning the lead around. Character of the artist is well played and you really do root for.
I HAVE REVIEWED OVER 400 (C H R I S T M A S ) MOVIES AND SPECIALS.
BEWARE OF SOME REVIEWERS THAT ONLY HAVE ONLY ONE REVIEW. WHEN ITS A POSITIVE THERE IS A GOOD CHANCE THEY WERE INVOLVED WITH THE PRODUCTION. NOW I HAVE NO AGENDA! I AM HONEST! I REVIEW MOVIES & SPECIALS AS A WAY TO KEEP TRACK OF WHAT I HAVE SEEN! I HAVE DISCOVERED MANY GEMS IN MY QUEST TO SEE AS MANY Christmas MOVIES AS I CAN.
In this movie a woman's life changes in unexpected ways when, in the process of writing a newspaper article about her family's heirloom Christmas ornament, she meets an enthusiastic artist. The heirloom seems to bring people together. Our protagonist is someone who isn't looking for love but is not against it either.
The film is one of those you should watch on a cold December Night. It is a very romantic but predictable.
This film however is better than the average Hallmark movie. It has some very pretty settings and a story that will spark something even in the most cynical viewer.

A woman is gifted a wooden Christmas Angel that has been passed from generations and sets to write a newspaper article about the history of it. The angel was originally made by her Great Grandfather for an actress that he loved, but their love never worked out.
The angel has had a hand in her grandparents meeting and also in her parents meeting. So her mother is hoping the same ending for her.
The potential love interests include an artist with a love of Christmas and a coworker who eschews Christmas and all it entails.
Cute concept and movie.

- TriviaBrady tells Susan, "Enjoy the ride; The destination will unfold." She responds by asking whether he had made it up or stole it from an old "Star Trek". His advice is similar to a line from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country (1991) in which Spock advises, "You must have faith ... That the universe will unfold as it should."
