Movie #1785 ........................."Christmas in Evergreen: Letters to Santa"

Movie #1785 "Christmas in Evergreen:  Letters to  Santa" --- This happens to take place in Evergreen, where a previous movie that I had seen took place as well.  And it was fun when the original girl shows up with her red truck in this one, as well.  This one wasn't as good as the first one, I don't think because of the guy ---- he kept misreading situations, and it was used again at the very end, and by then, he should have learned better than that ---- from there, the movie went down hill, too much made up of  a pat ending.  The Letter part of this seemed stuck in and I wasn't emotionally drawn into that part of the story, but the creative thinking in the film to get out of spots they get into did pull me in and I stuck with it until the end, but like I said above, I didn't like the end.  The film shows community spirit, which I like, but the film centers around fixing up a store that most of the audience can guess she will end up buying, so that wasn't effective.  I'd give it 3.8 out of 5.

"CHRISTMAS IN EVERGREEN:  LETTERS TO SANTA:  1 hr and 24 mins, 2018

When Lisa (Jill Wagner) takes a last-minute Christmas trip to her hometown of Evergreen, she finds that the historic general store has been closed. Using her skills as a professional retail designer, Lisa decides to keep local tradition alive and help the good people of Evergreen bring the store back to life. As Lisa charms a local contractor named Kevin (Mark Deklin) into working with her, the pair find themselves facing one surprise after another as they restore the store to its former glory. When the staff at the Kringle Kitchen temporarily accept the store's beloved 'Mailbox to Santa' for safekeeping, the townspeople find and rally around a mysterious 25-year-old letter that never made it to the North Pole. As old traditions are made new again, Lisa finds herself falling for Kevin, the traditions, and the town of Evergreen.
