THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – FOLLOWING YONDER STAR (2024)

 

Former TV star, well known for starring as an inspirational mother in “Guiding Grace”, Abby (Brooke D'Orsay), finds out that her ex-husband Julian (Adam Hurtig), with whom she hoped to reconcile, was remarrying and his fiancé was pregnant, despite hm always saying he didn’t want children.

She was in a Christmas store at the time and was recognised by an insistent clerk who became very aggressive with her and then her vociferous response was recorded, uploaded and went viral.

This now threw into doubt a role she had previously been offered so she retreats to a luxury Vermont resort hotel for Christmas only to find she had reserved a room for the following Christmas in error.

There were no vacancies anywhere due to a rare astronomical event due to occur on Christmas Eve, when a beautiful star likened to the Star of Bethlehem would appear.

Thanks to hotel receptionist Clara (Melissa Murray-Mutch) she finds a room at a quaint B&B, owned by high school astronomy teacher Nick (John Brotherton), who took on the Inn after his wife's passing, along with directing the local church's Christmas pageant.

Abby offers to help with directing the pageant and bonds with his daughter Lucy (Isla Verot) and while helping with several other activities in the community and around the inn she finds herself enjoying both the projects and Nick's company and even wins over his overprotective sister-in-law Zoey (Amanda Austin).

So, with this newfound community, family and love, will Abby discover that her heart and purpose, has a new home.
