THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – STUCK (2015)

“Stuck” is a comedic drama about six different incidents of entrapped New Yorkers, the majority of whom get stuck inside elevators.

It happens on Christmas Eve after a power outage and those trapped are confined there overnight.

Some of the confined are in groups, such as concert musicians on their way to perform a Christmas Eve concert, a surgical team and their patient at the hospital on the way down from theatre, and five mismatched individuals who would not under normal circumstances have gelled.

There was one couple, a shy wallflower and a brash photographer, and another made up of an employer and the employee he’s just laid off, and then there are two individuals in solitary confinement, one is a bitter wealthy developer in an open elevator on a construction site and the other is the van driver who is trapped in the van that crashed into the sub-station and caused the power outage.

Unable to escape they are forced to interact with their fellow captives or confront their solitude and they are all transformed by the events of their long night of confinement.

Patrick Stewart and Gary Cole are the big names in the large talented ensemble cast but for me Steven John Shepherd as Glen and Shawn Ora Engemann as Nurse Byrnes are the stars of this Christmas gem.

WHY DID THE TURKEY CROSS THE ROAD? # 4

 

Why did the turkey cross the road?

Well contrary to the fable

It was to avoid ending up

On the Christmas table

DO NOT EAT CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS

 

Do not eat Christmas decorations

They are not nutritious in the slightest

And apart from that very simple fact

You will end up with bad tinselitis

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – ANOTHER CHRISTMAS KISS (2014)

 

As Christmas approaches, Jenna Kingston (Elisabeth Harnois), shares an impromptu and unforgettable kiss with a dashing stranger in an elevator, who turns out to be billionaire playboy, Cooper Montgomery (Adam Mayfield), the philandering brother of her employer, Mia (Lola Glaudini).

Although she was affected by the kiss and finds him very attractive she confides to her best friend and neighbour Sebastian (Jonathan Bennett) that she is fearful of getting hurt in another relationship, and vows to resist his charms, but she is unaware that he was similarly affected by their embrace.

It was only as a result of the two of them spending more time together that she begins to realize his affection for her is real and his intentions are sincere.
