电影 A Boyfriend for Christmas

Holly  is  not  looking  forward  to  Xmas.  Her  brother  has  a  wife  and  kids  to  bring  to  their  parents'  house.  She  hasn't  had  a  boyfriend  since  Ted.  Holly  loved  Ted  but  he  broke  her  heart  when  he  chose  to  break  up  with  her  when  he  was  transferred  to  an  out  of  town  newspaper  owned  by  his  family's  publishing  empire.  Oh,  and  work  is  unrewarding--today  the  woman  Holly  was  helping  failed  to  regain  custody  of  her  kids  when  pro  bono  lawyer  Ryan  Hughes  never  showed  up  at  the  hearing.  Knowing  she  will  never  meet  Hughes,  Holly  has  to  settle  for  dictating  a  nasty  letter  to  him.  Holly's  friend  Diane  tries  to  perk  her  up  by  promising  to  send  her  a  great  Xmas  present.  So  when  a  handsome  man  with  a  Xmas  tree  knocks  at  her  door,  she  realizes  Douglas  Firwood  is  her  present  and  she  can  take  him  home  to  her  parents  for  the  day  as  a  boyfriend  she  is  serious  about.  Holly  thinks  the  day  is  going  perfectly--she  and  Doug  are  hitting  it  off,  her  family  likes  Doug,  and  her  family  believes  every  fact  about  Doug  that  she  dreams  up  on  the  spur  of  the  moment.  There  are  three  truths  she  doesn't  realize:  her  brother's  wife  foresees  great  professional  advancement  if  she  can  get  his  new  boss  Ted  married  to  Holly  so  Ted  is  coming  over,  Diane's  gift  to  Holly  was  a  great  bottle  of  booze,  and  how  unbelievably  coincidental  it  is  that  the  man  showing  up  at  her  door  carrying  a  Douglas  fir  should  claim  to  be  named  Douglas  Firwood.
Holly  stopped  believing  in  Santa  Claus  after  her  wish  to  meet  the  man  of  her  dreams  never  came  true.  So  Santa  sets  her  up  with  Ryan,  who  isn't  entirely  truthful  about  himself.  Now  Holly  faces  a  dilemma:  marry  her  current  boyfriend,  Ted,  or  fall  in  love  with  someone  who  has  lied  to  her.
