Home By Christmas

Reseña del editor Julia Bedford (Linda Hamilton) is a dedicated homemaker living in a modestly affluent neighborhood with her successful husband and sixteen-year-old daughter. When Julia discovers that her husband is cheating on her, her world is rocked. In their pending divorce, with most of her husband s assets carefully hidden, Julia is left with nothing except her car and her barely realistic child support checks. After moving into a small apartment, Julia tries to make do while working a minimum wage job. Her daughter hates their new scaled-down life and convinces her father and his new girlfriend to let her live with him. When Julia finally hits rock bottom and finds herself living in their car, she decides to begin her comeback--and ultimately discovers what s really valuable in life. Tienda Julia Bedford (Linda Hamilton) is not having a great year. When the homemaker divorces her cheating and vindictive husband--who hides his assets and makes sure that she gets almost none of "his" money--she finds herself in a hopeless situation. The bleak and predictable premise is the basis of Home by Christmas. But before thumbing your nose at the movie, consider that Hamilton gives a strong, touching performance that showcases the resiliency of a determined parent. Like a good guilty pleasure, Home by Christmas tugs at the heartstrings and may even manage to make the viewer reach over for a tissue. But just when it's getting too maudlin for its own good (Julia being forced to live in a car), the writers (and Hamilton) inject a bit of good-natured humor into the Lifetime film. Also, there are life lessons to be learned, not only for Julia, but also for her previously pampered daughter, who is naive enough to believe that her dad's money can buy her the happiness she thinks she and her mom have lost. So it comes as no shock when the girl chooses Dad and the stepmom-to-be over her own mother. Nor will the ending come as a surprise to anyone: the right person prevails, apologies are given and accepted, and there is to a certain extent the promise of a happily ever after for Julia. --Jae-Ha Kim
