The Review: A Newport Christmas


 

A Newport Christmas 8/10


This movie actually turned out to be good. This time of year we watch holiday films and they are either fine or horrible. This one I enjoyed because there were actual stakes. It is 1905 and this spinster named Ella Stewart Grafton from Newport is a nice ass lady living her single life and being nice to everyone. Her dad wants to marry her off to some guy she never met while she wants to start a charity for the less fortunate in town. Her dad is like “You too much like ya dead mama. Bump that. Your new husband coming soon.” Ella leaves to on her boat to do what rich independent women did and that is talk to the stars. She wishes for a true love and different life. Next thing you know a man is on the boat wondering how she got there and she gets scared and upset that he is on her boat. This guy is Nick. He cool. He look like the lovechild of Alec Baldwin and Brenden Frasier. Oh, and it is 2025.
