Of the 23 awards given, seven were given to Ghosts of Christmas Always. This movie stars Bold and the Beautiful alum Kim Matula, and Pretty Little Liars alum Ian Harding. Most of all, with a talented supporting cast that includes Reginald VelJohnson, Lori Tan Chinn, Beth Leavel, and Christopher Innvar, this Christmas Carol reimagining premiered on Sunday, October 30, at the very beginning of the season.
Moreover, it should be noted that Three Wise Men And A Baby, The Holiday Sitter, and Haul Out The Holly also shone. However, it was Ghosts of Christmas Present that was the most favorite.
What Is Ghosts Of Christmas Present About?
According to the Hallmark synopsis, “Katherine (Matula) works for the Department of Restoring Christmas Spirit as a Ghost of Christmas Present. She loves her job, visiting Earth every Christmas to help one unsuspecting soul rediscover their Christmas spirit. But this year has something unusual in store for her. Along with her co-workers, Ghost of Christmas Past Arlene (Tan Chinn) and Ghost of Christmas Future Roy (VelJohnson), their assignment is a man named Peter (Harding). They’re not sure sure why they’ve been assigned to him because, unlike their typical cases, Peter’s Christmas spirit is on point. When it appears that Katherine and Peter just might be fated for each other, their assignment starts to head down an unusual path toward none of them could have expected.”
Basically, the synopsis helps to share the overall story. Additionally, this movie has some of the same sorts of magical realism of DNA as such classics as Heaven Can Wait, and Field Of Dreams. Therefore, viewers who love those types of movies will love romance and destiny in this Hallmark instant classic.
