Plot

After a decade of living in San Francisco, Elizabeth Bird returns to her hometown of Ruidoso during Christmastime to convince her ex-boyfriend Randy to sell his ski resort to her employer and future father-in-law.

Release

The film played in select theaters in 2023 and was released on video on demand. [1]

Critical reception

Common Sense Media, "This holiday romcom fails to create a coherent storyline and ends up an incoherent, nonsensical mess. That said, The Christmas Classic does hit all the beats you might expect from a Hallmark or Lifetime Christmas film." [4]

Screen Rant , "Romance and comedy mingle in the perfect holiday cocktail thanks to The Christmas Classic." [1]

MovieWeb , "Thanks to some compelling chemistry between Malin Akerman (Watchmen, The Final Girls) and Ryan Hansen (Party Down, Superhero Movie), as well as a sweetly entertaining story, there is plenty of charm and festive spirit to be found in this early-in-the-season holiday flick." [5]
