Movie #1451 ........................."Christmas with Holly"

Movie #1451 "Christmas with Holly" is one I really enjoyed.  Why?  The humor was done well, esp. with the three brothers.  I liked the way the film didn't spend a lot of time on exposition --- we have to keep guessing as to why the little girl is not talking, why the one uncle has taken it upon himself to be her guardian...why is he moving away from his original place....... but I esp. like the way the story unfolded and the cute couple, and the adorable little girl whose first words are about a doll house she sees in a toy shop.  There's another woman that serves as a conflict, but she isn't the devil incarnate, so it is quite believable of a conflict.  And the relationship isn't rushed --- there's ease to it.  I would recommend this film and give it 4.5 out of 5.  This is really one to look for, in my opinion.
