To Warm Up The Holidays

This TV movie offers more than a clever title. As prescribed by the genre, it is a feel-good Christmas story with a romance running through it.

Retail book clerk, Darcy (Ali Liebert), runs into a man (Peter Porte) walking his dog---literally---and the guy suffers amnesia. With no personal information available for the unconscious accident victim, Darcy and the hospital do their best to uncover his personal information and help him regain memory, respectively.

This is a satisfying tale about personal discovery that guides the viewer on a journey of slow revelation. Although there are not many surprises, the plot is heart-warming.
