THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – CHRISTMAS LIST (2016)

 

Isobel Gray (Alicia Witt) plans an idyllic storybook Christmas with her boyfriend Peter Benson (Brett Bishop), including a snow-covered cottage in the Northwest, and a carefully composed bucket list of classic holiday traditions, to tick off, traditions that she was deprived of by her neat freak mother Ellen Gray (Wanda Cannon)

But when the boyfriend goes AWOL, and she meets Jamie Houghton (Gabriel Hogan) the list proves more challenging, and the possibility of a tempting new romance turns her life upside down.

In the midst of things her mother turns up intent on staying with her which ends in upset and recriminations, but she keeps working on her list anyway.

And as time goes by the question is, will Isobel have a White Christmas, and will it end under the mistletoe?

 

I’m a big Alicia Witt fan and she has made a few good Christmas movies, my favourite scene in this one is when Gabriel Hogan stands in as Santa and she dresses as his Elf, priceless.
