Movie #2221 "Christmas Movie Magic" (Lifetime) I loved this film --- because it honors movie magic, and I love everything about it! Female journalist doesn't want the story, but she needs to go to a small town and cover the anniversary of a classic xmas movie (like "It's a Wonderfull Life" but this time it is called "Christmas With You." It isn't interesting to her until she meets Brad, who runs the family business, and they discover together there's a mystery with who inspired the movie's lead song. So they are on a search from opening to closing -- and I enjoyed the way the story was told and all the interesting older people she interviews for the story. What i didn't like is the big, way-too-long- musical ending --- the whole rest of the movie is not a musical, but this ending is --- and the two people are obviously not show and dance people so it is an odd way to finish it --- maybe they could have shortened it? I give this 4.5 -- really like the film because it is about film!
