A Small Town In Rhode Island Is The Star Of A Hallmark Channel Christmas Movie
For many of us, it simply wouldn’t be the holiday season without a Hallmark movie marathon. There’s something about those heartwarming plots and wholesome content that puts us right in the Christmas spirit. Rhode Island has been the setting for several of these feel-good flicks, most notably a rather gut-wrenching film called November Christmas.
During these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list to visit at a later date.
It's set in a small town in Rhode Island (they don't name it, but we have a few guesses as to where it could be) where a community comes together to help a sick little girl.
Vanessa's parents, Tom and Beth, are trying to make life as magical as possible for her while she fights for her life.
At the beginning of the movie, they give Vanessa a snow globe, which kicks off her fascination with snow.
Tom asks Jess Sanford, a neighboring farmer, for some pumpkins even though it's a bit early for Halloween. Later, when he asks for a Christmas tree, Jess realizes what the father is doing.
During all of this, Jess reconciles with an old friend he'd lost touch with when his own son passed away several years before. That was a heartwarming twist that led to a happy reunion.
In a particularly beautiful scene, the family comes home from a hospital visit to discover that half the town has put up Christmas decorations a month early, just for her. But remember, this is Hallmark we're talking about... and let's just say things don't end tragically for Vanessa (thank goodness).
November Christmas was released a decade ago, but you can still catch it on the Hallmark Channel now and then. And we highly recommend that you do.
