Watching this felt like finding a quiet moment that warms the chest despite the cold outside.
3-Line Summary
The old-school Christmas mood hits like a familiar but unseen comfort.
The pace drags enough to make the wait feel longer than it should.
Expect a slow burn with a vintage feel that works better if you like quiet, character-driven stories.
