THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – THE CHRISTMAS SONG (2019)

 

Former Broadway performer Katherine Clark (Kristin Chenoweth) is the youth choir teacher with a problem.

Its Christmas time, and the Christmas Eve concert is on the horizon, and every year they perform a new song written specially for the concert, the sales of which provides their funding for the following year.

The problem is that their usual songwriter is unavailable so Katherine needs to write the big song herself, which will keep them going for the coming year, but she is fighting an internal battle over her personal confidence as she only had one hit as a composer.

The second problem came in the form of Danny, a boy with a beautiful golden voice (Kevin Quinn) who she wants to sing a solo but she needs to overcome the objections of his widowed father, Greg (Scott Wolf).

Despite being turned down flat a determined Katherine decides to drive out to the Scanlon home to plead her case with Greg to let Danny perform in the choir and is successful when her bubbly personality wins Greg over but then, due to a violent snowstorm, she finds herself stranded overnight as a house guest.

Over the following weeks Danny practices for the solo as Katherine and Greg become a duet.

So, can they manage to find love in the midst of self-doubt and parental responsibilities, and will they weather the storm when the secret Danny is holding is exposed.

 

A Christmas Love Story is a First-rate Christmas romance

Great storytelling, great acting and a positive message of how music can heal old wounds.
