Have
you seen the new Hallmark movie Journey
Back to Christmas? Hallmark describes it this way: A WWII era nurse is
transported in time to 2016 and meets a man who helps her discover the bonds of
family and that the true meaning of Christmas is timeless.
Hanna
enters a shed to escape a winter storm after her car, a Hudson, ends up in a
snowbank. That night the Christmas Comet passes over. The comet has a 71-year
cycle. It is 1945, and Hanna winds up in 2016 to a bewildering world.
The
cars are all strange. People dress differently. The hospital where she worked
is now a library. Her home is now the Organic Planet, where gluten-free
toothpaste is sold; what’s gluten free?
The
family that takes her in has a hard time too. How do you explain computers?
They try to outfit her with Uggs that she thinks are bedroom slippers. The
townspeople are suspicious of the stranger in their midst.
Hanna
helped the town rediscover charms from their past: the gaily lit gazebo,
caroling. The dog she rescued the night she disappeared led to a breeding
program for service dogs.
Imagine
being transported 71 years into the future. Would you find that you had left a
legacy? Do you think the world will be greatly changed and leave you wondering
if you’ve lost your mind?
If
you haven’t seen Journey Back to
Christmas and get the chance, don’t miss it. If you have seen it, what did
you think?
