Review of A Bramble House Christmas

The excellent story just carries the emotions in this movie. I was fully engaged the whole time even through the traditional elements (ice skating, ginger bread house making, tree trimming). Loved the movie. Willa the single mom was played perfectly by Autumn Reeser. I think this may have been a good role for Lacey Chabert as well. Finn (David Haydn-Jones) is an illustrator of Willa's son's favorite book. The interaction between the 3 was just perfect. The use of the sketching was effective. The cast also includes Teryl Rothery who was great in Christmas Getaway (2017). She is always a delight to see but in this movie she played the limping aunt of Bramble house maybe to the detriment of the movie. We also have 2 others who played in Cedar Cove. These 3 supporting cast roles is probably why I did not score it a 10.
