Christmas Waltz
Waltzing into the holidays like…
Hallstar Lacey Chabert is back as a lawyer who gets jilted by her fellow workaholic fiancé 3 weeks before their Christmastime wedding. BUT, she had already booked their ballroom dance lessons (10 lessons in the 3 weeks before the wedding… seems…rushed) and goes ahead with them anyway.
The jerk fiancé makes a reappearance to try and win her back (just like her mother anticipated would happen!!! Mothers know everything and we have eyes in the back of our heads - remember that, kids!).
But this is Hallmark, so she falls for her dance instructor and miraculously becomes a showcase quality dancer in 3 weeks.
In Christmas in Rome, Chabert is the one who doesn’t have much business acumen, but here the tables are turned. #girlboss
Hap-Hap-Happiest Scene:
The bright yet soft lighting in the dance studio scenes is legit amazing. Makes me despise the lighting in my house - note to self: buy and hang lots of twinkling, soft lights…
Wait! Why do I recognize that person?
Will Kemp (Roman) is a professional dancer, having danced in the lead position in Swan Lake on both Broadway and the West End.
Lacey Chabert’s third appearance on Happiest Christmas this year along. I’m evidently making up for not having any of her flicks in the lineup in 2020. Also - she’s Gretchen Weiner #IYKYK
SCORE: 6/10
Tell me more!
After Avery's storybook Christmas wedding is canceled, a dance instructor helps her face her fears in life and fulfill her dream of learning to dance.
