The Perfect Christmas Present

I can't think of having seen this premise before, although there is some similarity to Cyrano de Bergerac. It's nominally a Christmas story, but except for the holiday event, it didn't have to be around Christmas.

For me, a lot of how much I like this kind of movie has a lot to do with the relationship building between the leads and the premise provided a great mechanism for the leads to spend time together. Sam Page and Emily Peterson had great chemistry. Without it, the conflict wouldn't have made any sense.

I don't remember the first time I saw this movie, but I would think the surprise at the end was to be expected. That didn't mean it wasn't sweet.
