A Holiday to Remember Reviews

• A Good Christmas Movie That Is Based On A Book!

  
  By on 2005-10-07
  I love Christmas Movies and I also love to read romance books and this movie is based on a Christmas themed romance book called A Christmas Love by Kathleen Creighton though the title of the movie was changed to A Holiday to Remember. I have the book this movie was based on but haven't read it yet but I did peek at a couple of pages in the book and it looks like Carolyn and Clay didn't know each other in the book until they were adults but they changed it in this movie that they had known each other in their past and were getting married after they had finished high school but she jilted him and left him standing at the alter. Though I didn't read the book except to peek at a couple of pages and I can't really compare them I can say that the movie was good and the acting was very good especially from Connie Sellecca, Randy Travis and Rue McClannahan. The movie is about a recently divorced woman named Carolyn played by Connie Sellecca who takes her teenage daughter and moves from California back to the small Southern town she grew up in, the town she hasn't been back to since she jilted her fiance Clay at the alter and when she gets there she runs into Clay played by Randy Travis and his aunt Leona played by Rue McClannahan, a character unlike the character Blanche she played on The Golden Girls but more like a combination of Rose, Sophia and Dorothy, a down homey type like Rose but feisty like Sophia and wise like Dorothy but the only resemblance between Leona and Blanche is the southern accents. This is good movie!

  A Holiday to Remember must be one of the best Christmas movies made. It's a well written story and a well made movie. The actors did a good job. The children are well 'played'. The town situation well chosen. A great movie.
  As a writer I would love to see one of my novels made into a TV movie with the same care and know how!!
  Thank you. Keep up the good work.

  the fairy tale of ever lasting love... Very nice! I've given four stars because I think the character of little William, although sweet and well acted, but he is really too good to be true. No child, living on the streets, expresses himself in that way and certainly no such child can be transformed so easily. You can argue, of course, that there is no reality in the story of the couple either. Right. But - don't we all say silly and irrealistic things when we are in love? Or don't we all wish, Mr. Right would wait for us forever, no matter how much we've hurt him? Yes, we do. So that is a different matter. But- never mind, don't think too much about it! Just make a large hot cup of cocoa, lean back and enjoy it, because that's what X-mas movies are made for. By the way, I enjoyed the character of the mather very much.

  This is a very heartwarming and enjoyable movie. I really seek out family and marriage oriented entertainment.
  
  

• Warm and Cozy

  Need a warm cozy movie to bring out the real meaning of Christmas? Family, love, charity and some fresh baked pies...this is the movie for you. I watch it several times every year and never tire of its warmth and charm. Randy Travis and Connie Selleca spark some nice chemistry together and Rue McClanahan is a down-home pro. The kids are great too and so is the dog!

  I had been trying to find this TV movie for years with no success. I couldn't believe my eyes when I searched Amazon and found it was available. It is a great "feel good" Christmas movie.

• Happy Reunion
  By A31382TS8ME2 on 2007-12-03
  After being left at the altar, the story had a happy ending. Two people finally decided to take a risk to love again. The little orphaned boy was a nice touch to the movie.

• Christmas Spirit
  By A18YSASJZT3WYN on 2008-01-18
  This was a wonderful story about Christmas and the meaning of the season regarding forgiveness, giving, sharing and building new relationships in the spirit of Christ. I highly recommended it to those who are looking to serve others not just for Chirtmas, but throughout the entire year.

  I have always been a true Randy Travis fan. It amazes me that he acts as well as he sings. This movie is a story about a lost boy who wins the hearts of both Carolyn, her daughter as well as Clay (played by Randy) and his aunt. His acting leaves nothing to be desired he has it all whether it be a rough tuff guy in Black Dog, A Long Ride Home or soft hearted in Touched by an Angel and this movie A Holiday to Remember. I truly enjoyed watching it over and over again.
  
  
• Nice Christmas movie
  By A3GBS13EUHBDAR on 2008-03-27
  It's very hard to find Christmas movies these days that aren't full of commercialism, Santa Claus or even ones that don't make you cry. This is a very light, cheesy movie but just the thing to get you in the Christmas Spirit. We love Christmas and love to watch Christmas movies that are just fun.

  A fun movie to watch. Only problem, no closed captioning or subtitles making it difficult for hard of hearing to watch and understand.

• A yearly tradition...
  By A364OTMUX5K0JY on 2008-05-09
  Ever since I saw this on TV one Christmas I have watched it every year. I had it recorded on video so was glad to see it actually put out on DVD!! I like Randy Travis as an actor (from "Touched By An Angel" days) and the story, while a little sappy and predictable, nonetheless always makes my Christmas complete. Good for the whole family.
