The quote
“You woke me up, Ryan. You made me realize that if I’m always planning for the future, I won’t be present for it when it comes. You showed me how to be present.” I think that’s the quote gsuddy914 was looking for.Though it’s a story line that has been done before, it wasn’t a bad production. I’ve seen other Hallmark Christmas productions that I enjoyed much more, but it was still a nice movie. The only thing that started to bug me was J.T. Hodges, who played Owen, side burns. There are some shots in the movie when he is in profile and his sideburns look as if they are colored in with a brown marker. It doesn’t even come close to his hair color and looks as if there are two streaks on each side, not that close together. It kind of threw me out of the movie a bit after I noticed it.
All in all, not the best but still a nice movie for the holiday.
Finding Christmas is Finding A New Holiday Favorite!
This is an adorable holiday film. The plot is a direct ripoff of “The Holiday” with Jude Law and Cameron Diaz, where two couples suffer breakups at Christmas. Instead, “Finding Christmas” is two dumped but good looking guys from completely different worlds. Through the miracle of house swapping, Sean and Owen adventure completely out of their socioeconomic worlds and personal comfort zones to escape their broken hearts at Christmas. The major differences between this film and it’s predecessor duplicate “The Holiday” is the budget, name recognition actors, acting skill set – and this one is set in Manhatten and North Carolina, instead of London and LA. It’s predictable, entertaining and, in the never- ending Hallmark holiday movie allure, is all about finding love, happiness and joy at Christmastime.Despite its flaws and JT Hodges’ bizarre Ken-doll hairdo, I love this lovely little holiday romp. Oddly, the mostly Canadian actors all seem so uncomfortable with one another. The dialogue is stilted and dreadfully rushed. It’s as if the director was twirling his hands constantly to speed up the pace so they can get the entire film before the budget clock stops. Strangely, male lead JT Hodges as Owen, is a country singer in real life. His turn as actor seems the most natural and comfortable of the entire cast. By contrast, female lead Tricia Helfer, who plays Owen’s sister, Ryan, couldn’t be more awkward if she tried. Fortunately she has great teeth, was a Victoria’s Secret model, and is super thin and tall – because her biggest acting skill is hiding behind shy, coy smiles. I admire the fact that the film stylists didn’t put a lot of extensions in her hair, and let her look more like a country vet than a former supermodel.
I believe the timeline for the entire film is a week or less. In that span of time both leading guys meet and fall for the perfect women, who just so happen to be the two leading girls. The girls are also associated with the two leading men, so it’s less confusion all around. You can only wonder how a hot shot NY advertising wizard can stay in NC with a hometown vet, his hearts’s love, or the other way around, but that’s analyzing the film a little too heavily. Just watch and enjoy it for its simple message and Christmas spirit.
