Movie #2224 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . "Noel Diary" (Netflix)

Movie #2224 "Noel Diary" (Netflix) --  I really was pulled into this one very quickly --- the story was intriguing to me --- it deals with a guy who goes back to his family home, inheriting it from his mother whom he hasn't seen in a very long time.  There's a black woman who hesitates to bother him, but she finally gets enough courage to ask him if he remembers his nanny when he was growing up because she thinks that woman is her biological mother whom she is looking for --- and the rest becomes a journey to find this woman, and through the journey, both participants change and grow  -- and a relationship grows from that , as well.  A taut, quiet drama, but it comes across as very real the way it is handled.  I'd give it a 4 out of 5.  Nice quiet, small christmas movie.
