A Heavenly Christmas (Ep. 47‪)‬ Cash Grab Cinema

    • TV & Film

Ho, ho, NO? In this holiday episode, Rachel, Trae, and Josh discuss the 2016 Hallmark Hall of Fame film A Heavenly Christmas, starring Kristin Davis, Eric McCormack, and Shirley MacLaine. In this somehow more bland retooling of the basic plot in the 2010 movie Christmas Mail, a talented (wink) musician is miserable because he has to take care of his orphaned niece while also running a successful diner in Chicago. Luckily, Kristin Davis falls on ice, goes into a coma, and is recruited to be a Christmas angel by Shirley MacLaine to help Max learn something about something. Join us as we investigate the wooden acting, vapid dialogue, and multiple embarrassing musical performances and ask the question: is A Heavenly Christmas a genuine attempt at art, or just a soulless Cash Grab?



DISCLAIMER - The first ~12 minutes of this episode includes bonus content about a recent film event Josh and Trae attended. This is all part of the A Heavenly Christmas episode.
