Synopsis:
Just before the holidays Jessica Lew is ending her tenure as the assistant to her wealthy boss to use her recently earned law degree within his company, but offers to help his charming, younger brother as he looks after his orphaned nieces and nephew over Christmas.
Quick Thoughts:
If you’re looking for a queer holiday film, unfortunately “Christmas With The Darlings” is not that queer. Yes, there is a queer character in this Hallmark holiday film: Jessica’s friend. But it’s a very minor, blink-and-you’ll-miss-it lesbian side story. But the majority of the film centers around Jessica, Max, and the kids. This is certainly a Christmas film though, full of happiness, decorations, family, and a blossoming romance between our leads. And it’s an entertaining holiday film as well. It just isn’t really a queer holiday film. But if you don’t mind and are looking for something a bit more posh, “Christmas With The Darlings” is an enjoyable holiday film to watch.
