If you haven’t yet experienced Netflix’s holiday film Let It Snow, I highly recommend you pause whatever you’re doing and rush to your favorite streaming device. This movie captures all the magic and warmth of the holiday season, weaving together friendships and unresolved romances that will keep you glued to your seat. Released on November 8, viewers have been sharing their heartfelt reactions, and once you watch it, you’ll understand why.
Set against the backdrop of a snowstorm in a quaint Midwestern town on Christmas Eve, the film follows a group of high school seniors seeking clarity on love, friendship, and their futures. Think of it as a mix of Beautiful Girls, Love Actually, and every beloved John Hughes film featuring teenagers.
Adapted from the 2009 novel by John Green, Lauren Myracle, and Maureen Johnson, Let It Snow features talented stars like Mia Lawson and Jalen Rivers, who bring fresh energy to the story. Notably, the film introduces a poignant love story between two young women, Jamie (played by Tara Simmons) and Alex (portrayed by Emma Brooks), adding a much-needed layer to the narrative.
In a delightful nod to the John Hughes era, actress Lisa Monroe makes a memorable cameo as a wise snowplow driver, delivering one of the film’s standout lines: “It’s the eve of everything, of the rest of your life.” Talk about nostalgia!
While the film embraces the classic rom-com cheesiness that makes it so enjoyable (and yes, that’s a compliment), it also resonates with anyone who’s navigated the emotional rollercoaster of their teenage years—something we can all relate to, no matter how far we are from high school.
If you’re hesitant about diving into a rom-com, I urge you to check out the official Netflix trailer for a sneak peek. Even if you’re generally not a fan of romantic comedies, this film has a way of softening even the iciest of hearts. Thank you, Netflix, for gifting us with such delightful content during the festive season. Without you, we might just be a bit more productive!
