Hallmark specializes in Christmas movies, and this one punches all the emotional buttons. Indeed, the story of "Miracle in Manhattan" AKA "Debbie Macomber's Call Me Mrs. Miracle" is like a large jigsaw puzzle that miraculously resolves into a perfect Christmas snow scene for the holiday.
Jewel Staite ("Firefly") plays Holly, a pleasant young woman who works for Lindy Lowe (Lauren Holly), a designer of women's clothes who is the prototypical horrible boss. Holly meets store manager Jake (Eric Johnson) and somehow bumps into him again and again. At the center of this Christmas tale is Mrs. Miracle (Doris Roberts), a seasonal employee at Jake's store who may be more than just the nosy interloper she appears to be.
Those who are suckers for sappy Christmas stories with benign paranormal forces at work will appreciate the heart in this TV movie.
