इस फ़िल्म के बारे में जानकारी

Barely out of school and still searching for his voice as an artist, twenty-year-old Thom looks forward to another idyllic holiday in his hometown of Placerville, CA, a rustic hamlet nestled in the Sierra foothills. But this Christmas, Placerville is struggling: the town's tourist industry is failing, Thom's ailing, once-brilliant mentor, Glen, has lost his ability to paint, and Thom's spirited mother, Mary Anne, reveals that she's losing their family home to foreclosure. Faced with so much uncertainty, Thom comes to realize that salvation may lie in the community of friends and loved ones he left behind. With Glen's help, he not only discovers himself as an artist, but helps the entire town of Placerville rediscover the true spirit of the holidays.

रेटिंग और समीक्षाएं

Thomas Kinkade died from an overdose of alcohol and valium. His paintings were for white people who longed for an era of bygone days which never really existed; white people's utopia. No cultural diversity, no discussion of racism, sexism or homophobia, no social justice issues, in short, no reality. Kinkade was an extremely talented and gifted painter, but he wanted to escape, and it killed him.

Great movie of the real struggles people have in life., people of any race could relate to the struggles he faced. It was realistic and touching . Thomas Kinkade was a brilliant and inspiring artist .

Loved the story. Loved the acting. Jarod Padalecki is a great actor. His emotional scenes are so real. Why this story and the acting of Jarod Padelecki and Peter O'Toole is not more recognized in this film is beyond me.
