I did some commercial reading today while watching one of my favorite Hallmark Christmas movies Silver Bells. Granted I had the movie recorded and could have fast forwarded through every commercial, but I decided to read instead. Silver Bells is one of Hallmark's more emotional movies about a 17 year old boy, Danny who runs away in New York City. The movie takes place over the span of a year. Danny is homeless and living in New York while his father works on their Christmas tree farm and looks tirelessly for his son. A series of events will lead them to finding the silver bells. I think the reason I love this movie so much is that it isn't all about the love story. It is about a father looking for his lost son. It is about a boy who wants his fathers approval, but doesn't know how to obtain it. I think most of all the movie proves how far you will go to find and do what you love. I highly recommend this movie to be on your read list for next year.
