THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – CHRISTMAS IN VIENNA (2020)

 

Jess Waters (Sarah Drew) travels to the most festive place in the world, Vienna, where she is due to perform for the local Philharmonic at the Christmas concert.

Despite her outward appearance she is dispirited and has fallen out of love with the Violin and has decided that the Christmas Concert will be her swan song as her heart just isn't in it anymore.

Once in Vienna she bumps into diplomat Mark Olsen (Brennan Elliott) at an Austrian Advent wreath lighting ceremony and she is thankful to find someone who speaks English who can explain what’s going on and the couple enjoy a little innocent flirtation before going their separate ways.

After some Violin practice and dinner alone the two meet again at a lavish function celebrating the upcoming event at which she will perform, and their eyes meet across the rather large, crowded room but this meeting ends with him leaving abruptly leaving her to doubt if they will meet again.

However, through her friend Tori Voight (Alina Fritsch) she is formally introduced to him and his children, Summer, Julian, and Isla (Allegra Tinnefeld, Oskar Ricketts and Abigail Vollnhofer) at his diplomatic residence and he apologizes for his abrupt departure and the relationships tentatively continues.

Later his children take her out sightseeing through the city and she begins to bond with them and offers them counsel for issues they can’t discuss with their father and offering them help and encouragement.

Meanwhile she is falling for their widowed father as they enjoy dinning, ice skating and exploring the city together.

But for them to make the next step he must evaluate his professional ambitions and balance those with the needs of his children.

Jess, arrived in Vienna to perform for the last time because she couldn’t find the inspiration she needed to play.

After meeting Mark and his children, she rediscovered her love for music, and hoped her love for him would be returned.
