Drab, and that's too bad
8 December 2019
Matthew Davis' role calls for a drab, joyless character. Unfortunately, he does too well in meeting this requirement.

Jill Wagner has been popular in a string of these Hallmark Christmas movies, and got her own movie series this year (2019) in Murder 101. We like her better in that series than her Christmas roles. The director only allows her one scene of real life here, where she becomes angry when she thinks her time has been wasted in preparing for a meeting where she felt it was preordained that she be turned down for the job.

Darby Hinton, who played Daniel Boone's son as a child in the 60s, and later played the humorous Cody Abilene in the racy Malibu Express, is present more as a curiosity than a major player, though he has a long career on stage and screen to draw from.

This won't be on our rewatch list.
