A police detective falls in love with the woman whose murder he's investigating.
Editor's Verdict
"Despite a 'Holiday Release,' the core elements of 'Laura'—a dark mystery/drama centered on murder and obsessive love—do not align with standard Christmas movie criteria. There is no indication that the setting, plot, themes, or iconography are tied to the Christmas season in a meaningful way."
