Why we’d put this one on

Ashley Williams plays a young widow who must spend the holidays back at her former home, where a Christmas wish lands in an unexpected way. Inspired by Scotty McCreery's song Five More Minutes, it carries a weirdness of 10 and leans on both wishes and spirits to tell a story about grief and the time we wish we still had. Lucas Bryant plays opposite her. At 6.8 it is one of the better-liked tearjerkers in this batch. If you want the emotional, lump-in-throat kind of Hallmark rather than the meet-cute kind, this is your night.
