Five-time Emmy nominee and Golden Globe winner Henry Winkler stars in The Most Wonderful Time of the Year, the story of what happens when you open your heart to the power of Christmas. Disenchanted single mom Jennifer Cullen (Brooke Burns) is a Scroogette when it comes to anything Christmas. In fact, even her six-year-old son, Brian, is having trouble believing in Santa Claus. But when her Uncle Ralph (Henry Winkler) visits and brings a fellow passenger from his flight named Morgan Derby (Warren Christie), Jennifer s dubious heart awakens to the possibility that perhaps Christmas really does hold miracles. It s uplifting and laugh-packed and a story that will inspire the whole family to believe.

Editor's Verdict

🎄YES

"The plot is entirely driven by the protagonist's transformation regarding the 'power of Christmas' through the arrival of her uncle and a stranger. Key elements like Santa Claus and the 'Scroogette' archetype confirm its central adherence to traditional Christmas movie tropes, leading to a definitive 'YES' classification."
