Someone

call me when?

Someone.

You'll find it all.

It's everything.

She.

I rooted, you know,

when we are together.

Always a force.

Only when you love someone.

Things seem.

I'm catching you, Amy.

I wouldn't.

We are together.

Always up.

No.

Girl. Molly.

No one can beat us up the mountain,

huh?

Oh.

One you are possible

with. You know that.

Nothing wrong with coming in second.

You need to talk to your horse

and just try and keep up

next time.

I'll keep that in mind.

Mrs.. I was.

Yeah.

Why do I feel like I'm always

chasing the image on my.

Really? Yeah.

What do you say? Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah. Get over.

James.

It's beautiful.

You know.

Thank you. Over there.

Let's go.

Are you good?

Are you serious?

I'm going to go first.

Sorry.

Thank you so much.

Make up the movie.

Come on. Let's go.

Thank you so much. Okay.

Someone give me a buffet.

I'm so hungry right now, but not a

character.

For my character.

Nobody.

I saw Gustaf.

Was going to be the photographer for

the shoot.

The great Gustaf is indisposed.

My God.

I don't think he's going to show.

I know.

Not again. I'm just his assistant.

Ucsf's talented assistant.

Please, Amy.

Fine.

You pick up the lens and get those

lights up and just tone it down on

her lips.

Cue people.

Work out.

Gorgeous.

Yeah, they're

nice.

Okay.

HATCHER You were on stage at the

Palais Garnier, and you

were performing in front of the

creme de la creme of the city.

Simply just holding that moment

in between the curtain falling and

the applause.

Okay.

Or just raise.

Hold on there.

Exquisite Adeline.

Her ballerina whisperer,

and the other skills you'd like to

share with us.

We have been able to ride a horse

since I was five.

Cosmopolitan and practical.

Paris and New York.

Beyond this little French.

Well.

Hey,

how are you?

Okay.

And your work?

Amy, great job

today.

You too. Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas.

You know, I heard

a rumor about an extraordinary

assistant who stepped in during

Gustav shoot in Moscow.

That was one time.

And it happened again in Paris

and Singapore and Sydney.

You know, Gustav, I take the credit

for this, too.

He always does.

I'm his personal assistant.

Okay. I'm stuck here for life.

But you, Amy,

you're supposed to do a one year

apprenticeship, but you're still

here doing his work for him.

Might be time you escape a shadow.

Well, the last few years have

certainly been an adventure.

I just wish. Stop.

Start on film. Or at least tried

medium format.

Like Irene Baur.

She's a recluse.

And the most in-demand photographer

of a generation.

Yeah, I mean, if you can find her.

You heading home for the holidays?

Bickerstaffe wants me to fly to

Iceland after Christmas, so it's

just easier to stay in the city.

Well, I'd be pretty lonely for

staying around here.

Everyone's going home for the

holidays. You too.

As soon as we are done, I'm heading

straight to the airport.

At one photo shoot in Rome.

And then I'm having an Italian

Christmas. Oh, yeah.

Cheese, pasta, wine.

Jamie.

I have a delivery for you.

Thank you.

I got them to hold my mail.

You can't find a mailbox in the

Himalayas.

Amy,

Are you.

Santa?

It's from my hometown.

Snow.

Are they from everyone in Snowy

Oak?

Pretty much.

Right.

He's canceling the Christmas party.

I want to cancel it.

Who? James.

James Hunt.

Jennifer.

Junebug is. Are you

sure

that I heard something?

That's because I do.

All right.

Dad.

I nearly dropped my cookie.

Oh, good.

My sugar grandma

made them.

Yeah.

Anyway, it's Christmas.

Nope.

Not yet, it's not.

You should go get changed on those

wings, like, every day.

The dad said I'm a Christmas

fairy.

Can I still be on Christmas Day?

It's canceled. Christmas?

My just a regular fairy now.

Jennifer, I have not canceled

Christmas. I have canceled a

Christmas party.

Not a Christmas tree.

Level with your mom.

Mom is on tour.

She isn't back until Christmas Day,

remember?

Of course I remember.

But your grandma sure to have a big

ol Christmas tree at church.

Rude.

So what's it

about? Big house.

To bug.

How many times have I told you

the big house isn't ours?

It's Amy's.

Fit. Amy's not even here.

I've never even met her.

Well, that's because Amy is busy

away working.

But when he was a little girl like

you, she lives in the big house with

her mom.

Molly? Molly passed away.

She left it to Amy.

Which Amy? Like a Christmas tree.

Do you think.

Amy likes

Christmas even more than you do?

No, she does not.

Yeah.

I love Christmas.

I wish Amy was here then.

I bet she'd get a Christmas tree.

That she would.

And then she'd kill me.

I'm going to kill him.

This is the very dramatic.

And I mean, I'm all for other

people's family drama, don't get me

wrong. But then you say you hadn't

been home for like three years.

But James tends to avoid me anyway.

So I think the last time I saw him

was.

No, no, no. I know that look.

That's the look I had when I

realized my ex was going to be the

same New Year's Eve party as me.

Even this James character, I have

history, don't you?

Sort of. But that is not the

point.

The point is that he canceled

Christmas.

Snowy Oak was a tired ranching town

before my family created the

Christmas party.

And it's not just a party.

It's the one time of year the whole

town comes together.

It's really important.

And now I have a whole bag of

letters to prove it.

Sorry. My God.

I have to go.

Forgetting something, huh?

Amy.

Good luck.

Merry Christmas. My God.

Merry Christmas, Amy.

Hello.

Your mom.

Excuse me.

Where can I find James?

Pardon me, miss, but who are you?

Oh, I'm.

Just out at the stockyards.

Thank you.

Hey, what do you think you're doing?

You don't want to be getting lost

out there.

That's who I think it is.

She'll be fine.

James Hunt, Why did you cancel the

Christmas party?

Hi, Amy.

And a long time.

How are you doing?

Oh, me? I'm doing fine.

Thanks for asking.

Really?

Yeah. James, it's tradition.

Why did you cancel it.

And not cancel Christmas?

Canceled a Christmas party?

My mother's Christmas party?

Yeah.

An annual event.

The highlight of the year is Snowy

Oak.

James, come on.

It's the most magical, exciting

and challenging Christmas

celebration, which has been held

uninterrupted since 1929.

When you have been to use that word.

Well, that's completely irrelevant.

You're the one who came all the way

out here to yell at me.

I think it's entirely relevant.

I don't have to attend.

No, it's important, James.

Christmas is the one time of year

magic is allowed to happen.

Well, magic's expensive.

Then we can tone down the glitter.

Look, James, I know the ranch has

had its run of bad luck, but we

could get a tree or an

Carole Singer.

No money, Amy.

It's more than just a run. A bad

luck.

Okay.

What about another bank loan?

Back in L.A.? Any money?

And so we made up the already late

payments.

Why didn't you tell me any of this?

I did.

I e-mailed you.

You should have called me.

Look, I'm sorry, Amy.

I canceled the Christmas party

because it seemed like the right

thing to do.

This isn't over.

Okay.

I'm going to take Holly back to the

stables.

Well, wait.

What happened to Holly?

Holly was an old horse when you

left.

It's about lots of change.

But.

Sorry I called you there on the

inbound.

You just look so much like Holly.

Same pretty face, huh?

I

used to know everything about this

place.

This thing about horses.

You always forgive and forget for

good harm and carrots.

Shirley.

I was beginning to think I had the

wrong ranch.

Well, things

might change, but this will

always be home.

You look like you need a campfire

brew.

I do.

Hey, I'm James Hunt.

We have had Rancher.

I've been training James to take

over since he was a boy.

You know that.

James stepped up a few years ago,

and now I play caretaker.

Really? Are you okay?

Is it your back?

Oh.

Bad knees, my

teeth.

Don't you worry about it.

What happened?

I was out in the yard when

suddenly, bam!

It happened.

Right?

I was a cowboy for 40 years.

Why are you all living in the main

house? It's more comfortable.

No, it was always Mom's.

James was worried about the cost of

heating the place.

And I'm more than happy at my

own place. And James and

little Juniper are in the ranchers

cottage out back.

Juniper? That's his little girl.

Hmm. Little darling.

An angel.

That still doesn't explain why

everything has been packed up.

Well, when you didn't come home for

the Christmas party the first year,

and then a year after that,

James picked everything away.

Said we needed to focus on keeping

the ranch afloat.

Are things really as bad as what he

says?

Sorry, darling.

We did our best.

Why didn't anyone tell me.

And risk you abandoning your career

to come here?

I don't think so.

Your mother would never forgive me.

What's to be in your bonnet?

I thought that while I was away.

Things here.

We're going to stay the same.

But if everything was the same,

there wouldn't be any surprises.

Like an unexpected visit from a dear

friend.

I suspect that's for you.

Thanks.

The letter.

I came right over.

After choir practice.

I knew if I rally the troops, those

letters would get to you eventually.

God bless the post office.

Are you off, Charlie?

I better get back to it.

I don't know what you two up to

respect. I'm going to need an alibi.

By.

Now.

Now, I assume that son of mine

is off riding horses and whatnot, so

we can talk about how on earth

we are going to save Christmas.

Yes.

You are staying for Christmas,

aren't you?

Oh, but just for Christmas.

I have to go to Iceland out of the

holidays for a photo shoot.

Of course you do.

Such a Rolling Stone gathering.

No mass gaining a certain of.

So much has changed here.

I mean, we used to eat dinner at

this table every night, and now

it looks like it's part of a museum.

You know.

Here in here.

France has lost a little of

her magic.

Exactly.

Yeah.

I don't like to see the ranch this

way.

Me neither.

I mean, maybe James is right about

canceling the party.

Do you know where the party started

in the first place?

There was a bad season, and

my great grandmother wanted to do

something to lift everyone's spirits

that season.

My darling, it was the Great

Depression.

And from what my grandmother said,

great. It was.

People left New York in droves.

There was no work.

Hardly any food to go around.

People were barely surviving.

Your great grandmother decided

that Snowy Oak needed to be reminded

of the one thing. They still did

have each other.

I'm not saying losing the ranch

wouldn't be hard, but

some things are bigger than our own

challenges.

I mean, I always thought of this

place as an anchor, and

I like to think of the Christmas

party as giving people that same

feeling, too, you know, something

that they can rely on.

What was your mother do?

She would have sent all the invites

already.

Hmm.

This is your ranch now, Amy.

You decide what happens next.

But if you do decide to go

ahead with it, you might need

this.

Molly gave it to me before she

passed.

I used it to pull off the Christmas

party these past few years.

Everything you need to know is

in there.

I haven't seen this in so long.

Thank you for keeping it safe.

Of course.

How was it seeing James again?

You know, I always did wonder if

you two might find your way back

to each other.

You're going to be disappointed.

You've already yelled at him having

you.

Well, then I'll just have to settle

for a welcome visit from Mistletoe

Ranch's. Favorite Daughter.

Okay, Charlie.

Do you know where I could pay my

respects to Holly?

She's in the pines for the

strawberries growing summer.

Hey, my girl.

Sorry I was gone for so long.

I'm just here by.

You're such a good girl.

So fast.

It was funny when

things were got a little stressful

at work. I used to catch

you galloping down in New York

Street or showing

up at a photoshoot all

settled up and with Gallop

all the way back to my.

You scared me.

Are you lost?

Do I look lost?

No, no, you look.

I could be friends with the air.

Not on these words, not for years.

What are you doing out here so late?

What are you doing out here so late?

I used to live here.

Sometimes I'd come up for a walk.

It's peaceful.

Yeah, it is peaceful, usually.

You live here?

Yes, I do.

Right then. You know, this is her

ranch. That's my place.

You're Molly's girl.

Yes, you are.

There she is.

You knew my mother?

I did.

The Christmas parties were wild.

I guess that's your job now.

Oh, I could never replace my mother.

I have to rebuild the fire.

Just got to keep it lit.

Huh?

So.

Hello.

Marley's famous Christmas cake.

Where to find the mistletoe.

I've never been inside this house

before.

Hello.

What's the big house?

This is the big house.

I used to think there are ghosts

inside here, but it's just

empty.

Will you take my photo?

Sure.

It's

all right.

Ready.

Big smile.

Perfect.

Come on, have a look.

Hey.

You're Amy.

I am.

I knew you would come.

Oh, did you?

Dad and I were talking about

Christmas and how much I wanted a

Christmas tree.

And he said if Amy were here,

she'd get a Christmas tree.

Well, your dad is absolutely right.

I didn't mean it to be a wish, but I

did really wish it.

And it is Christmas.

And magic happens at Christmas.

And here you.

Are. And here I am.

You must be Juniper.

I like your wings.

Thanks. My mommy.

She's a singer.

Are you going to get a Christmas

tree for us?

Yeah, I think so.

How about.

Now?

Maybe you first.

Cover at least part of this.

Not all of it, though.

Oh, good morning.

Good morning.

I hope you don't mind, but with you

being back and out.

I thought you might like a little

bit of company.

Oh, thank you, Charlie.

Trust you had a good sleep.

It's a fine.

Thanks.

Amy took my photograph.

I see you met Jimbo.

I have.

So I've been thinking

about Mom and what she would have

done. And our financial predicament.

We're asset rich, but

we're income.

Poor young

lady.

What? Do you remember that chat we

had about saying things we don't

really understand?

You have no funny money.

Precisely.

Look, I know things have been tight.

Christmas party was never about

fancy ornaments or expensive

gifts. It's more about coming

together.

And we're not the only ranch in town

facing hard times.

Christmas is a week away, so that

gives us enough time for the choir

to rehearse and for us to light up

the house and get a tree.

Yes.

Amy.

Look,

it's my mom's Christmas book.

She laid out everything we need to

do.

I mean, don't you want things to be

like how they were only

for a little bit.

What do we have to lose on?

I think the horses need to be fed.

Well, I didn't hear. No.

Charlie, get down from there.

I can do that.

Come on, you bridges, James.

That's all. I can't replace a light

bulb

from the bank, I suppose.

Definitely not a love letter.

Yeah.

I know it's tough, but

that's what wrenching is.

Tough times followed

by the tough times.

And just when you think things

can't get any worse.

They improve.

Oh, no. Things get terrible.

Yeah, it's not as encouraging as it

sounds.

Well, Francine isn't for just any

wahu on horse.

Do we do the wrong thing, Charlie?

I'm borrowing the hill to keep the

land.

Worst thing you can do is slowly

sell off land.

Break it up.

Bit by bit.

Wake up one day and you got no land

run.

You have faith that things are going

to turn around.

It takes faith to run and match

that healthy dose of ignorance.

Yeah, well, I got that in spades.

Oh, Amy,

She's got you in a flap.

There's a no fly zone, you see.

Always did have that effect on

you.

You might consider going easier on

Amy.

Easy.

She's barely been back here, and

she's sworn in to make

Christmas angels.

She has no idea what it takes to run

a ranch.

Well, that may be, but you were

close once ones. Unless you count

for something.

It's Christmas, James.

She has no family but the people in

this house.

She hasn't seen us in years.

Wouldn't you think she'd have some

place to go?

Some fancy party?

Something that

afternoon, Charlie.

Uh huh.

Yeah.

We just need a little more time.

Could you maybe give us until March?

Yeah, No, I know,

I know. We've already had an

extension,

but.

Can I call you back?

Hi.

So,

what do you think?

Did you.

Like Chris?

Did you do it?

Yeah. Yeah.

With Amy.

Okay.

It's also really

useful to stay up and look

at everything.

When your father was a young boy.

Jennifer? Yeah.

He used to love Christmas.

He used to sneak into the church and

just stare up at the big Christmas

tree and the pillar candles.

And you know who was always there

bundled up next to him?

Who?

This one here.

They were inseparable and always

up to something.

I was just an innocent bystander.

That is not true.

Oh, goodness. Do you remember when

you put the cattle out into the

valley?

Okay. I was an accident.

And if I remember correctly,

James had one job.

I was the guy behind me.

I was on a horse.

What kind of cowboy can close the

gate on horseback?

I was 12.

All that matters was that the cattle

were fine and no one got hurt.

What were you doing in that pasture,

anyway?

Well, Amy

found out that her favorite cow,

Delilah, was about to be

sold. So she made a plan

to kidnap.

To rescue.

Rescue? Delilah.

I thought I could just hide her in

my bedroom.

A foolproof plan.

Almost.

When you really got trampled in the

process.

Well, we could run pretty fast back

then.

I spent three long days rounding

up cattle.

But I'm glad you kids have a

sweet, cute summer memory.

Lucky Molly was a decent rancher.

Yes. We would have lost that herd to

the mountains.

Dad said Molly had the best

Christmas in town.

Did he?

I did.

No offense, Mom.

None taken.

Molly knew how to throw a party.

That's why I'm so glad you came.

I'm so glad you wrote, huh?

You're always taking her side.

Hey, I'm taking Christmas aside.

Huh?

Now, Juniper, the

choir's very excited to perform that

Christmas party.

So will you lend your beautiful

singing voice to the cause and sing

Christmas solo?

Yes.

Wonderful.

Amy, this is going to be a great

success.

You know, this is going to be a

great success.

The dishes

raised a beautiful daughter.

Yeah, she's pretty amazing.

What happened between you and

Jennifer's mom?

Sage and I get along fine.

I can make it work.

She's touring a lot, which means

I get to spend a lot of time with

Junebug.

Oh, you know her as a lucky girl.

This is a great place to grow up.

I thought I might run into the

last time I was here, but I think

you're out of town.

Horse auction.

All right.

I did try to call.

I know.

I didn't mean to be away for so

long. James.

We've been busy, but.

Wait.

What are you doing?

Washing up.

If it's my turn to wash hair.

Are you kidding me?

You watched last time.

Who remembers?

I do.

It was just before Mom

passed.

Eight years ago.

Yeah, I remember because we had just

finished dinner and then moment to

go get the fruit cake, but

we had our cake.

So you washed?

Hydrate.

It's my turn.

How do you even remember that?

I remember it because it was unfair.

You ate most of it.

I'm gonna check the telly.

Go for it.

I know what it's going to say.

But.

So is there

some guy

wearing turtlenecks and talks

about philosophy while eating tapas?

Yeah. The little dishes

you get from Spain.

No, it's bizarre.

No, I'm not dating a philosopher

who enjoys small plates of Spanish

food.

Hmm.

Not much time for love when you're

constantly on the move.

It's really nice to be home now.

Actually, at Christmas, everyone

loves Christmas.

Not everyone.

For some, it's just another day.

Oh, please.

You love Christmas.

You still love playing that piano,

driving everyone crazy with

Christmas carols.

Yeah.

I can't believe you let it get so

out of tune.

You don't play anymore.

James?

Yeah. Your mother's just leaving.

Thank you, Charlie.

I'll drive around.

Just

let me. James, become so

serious.

Take it from me.

Running a ranch is a stressful job.

Yeah, I know, but I used to

sing and laugh all the time.

Even when he was working.

Who knows what runs through a

cowboy's mind.

But he certainly doesn't sing

anymore.

So you found your old boots.

You didn't need to do this.

I wanted to help

and apologize.

For.

Coming here unannounced,

yelling at you in front of the

horses,

but mostly for

not being here.

Leaving you to deal with all of this

on your own.

On a ranch?

Since I was a kid.

Now I am. And I'm this close to buy

my own place here.

You left your dream for mine.

Okay.

What's on the docket for today?

You're going to build Santa Claus

sleigh in the back garden.

Find some reindeer.

I got to see that for tomorrow.

Okay. No, I thought I'd help you

here with things.

Really?

Hmm.

What?

I have an assistant for a crazy

person. Okay. I work 14 hour days.

I'm not so soft.

Okay.

It's work.

Yep.

Hey, James.

What's all that weird equipment on

the shelf for

soil testing?

Is there something wrong with the

soil?

Precision agriculture, GPS,

receivers, your soil samples

to map out the property.

Help us figure out where the last

thriving.

It's not kind of brilliant.

Yeah, it's expensive.

Didn't really get started,

unfortunately.

That's a good day's work.

Not too exhausted, you.

Know, more than hiking up to the top

of Mount BLOCK because the light was

just right.

I must show you something.

Is that what I think it is?

Maybe.

Well, you don't still play music for

the horses, do you?

It's been a minute.

Are those the old records?

You're gonna love this

man. Yeah.

They're all still here.

This one.

Got a little.

So far

the car

they.

In the same town

choir practice.

I promised your mom I would take it

over.

Okay.

It's not stopping.

I had one today.

No. This.

To send you off

to say that.

My little Christmas family.

So I thought we'd go old school,

a series of Christmas songs with our

lovely juniper here, getting a

chance to show off her beautiful

voice.

I love it.

You go. How do you have fun?

The choir's excited.

I have missed this place

more than I realized.

I would have loved to have had it as

a daughter in law.

But I'm just so happy about.

Okay, let's rehearse.

We'll pick it up with our.

33.

Guys over here.

Perfect. You got this.

Twas the night before Christmas

when all through the house.

Not a creature was stirring,

not even a mouse.

The stockings were home by

the chimney with care

in hopes the Saint Nicholas

soon would be there.

Thank you. The children were nestled

smoke in their beds while

visions of sugarplums danced

in their.

Ears of Southampton.

And I don't remember either

one of us getting a bedtime story.

No more

likely to get hold of you leaving

your head on your bed.

Well, there's more bad luck

in leaving a cowboy hat in your bed.

Oh, yes, Sheriff Charlie

give you a woman.

What's the matter?

We've had some good times here.

Away to the.

Window.

And you're right

about Christmas.

I haven't seen Junebug this happy in

a long time.

Well, I was going to do it with or

without you,

and I'd rather do it with you.

Thank you.

James.

That's my cue.

All right. When you

come, I'm going.

Heard. Sleep well.

If we move the current

loan to a bank with more interest,

we will still owe

$50,000.

And we will. We need to pay that.

Before the year ends.

Okay.

You don't happen to have $50,000 in

a customer, do you?

I do know how to keep up with

customer.

What about if we sell off some of

the land? You know the back.

Look.

No, We did our best

to avoid that.

Once you start trying to stop,

you know.

Death by a thousand cuts.

Exactly.

The truth of the thing is,

since Marley passed,

this place has been a ship without a

captain.

We've all done our best to make

up for it. But that's the truth.

You inherited this place, Amy.

But you don't have to inherit his

burdens.

You have a life outside of the

ranch.

But it is your

name on the dotted line.

I can guide you, but only

you can decide what to do.

So what do you want, Amy?

Do you see yourself living here?

I mean, this will always be home, of

course, and I don't want to see it

go, but.

My life is all

over the place.

Well, ranching is all

about taking chances.

But if that's not what you want,

a lot of people have expressed

interest, so I could make some

calls.

I need time to think.

I'll just be upstairs.

Have you told her?

The adoption should

never go for you.

She might.

I don't want to hurt her, Charlie.

This place has always been Molly's

and Amy's, and I don't want to

change it.

Better you some stranger.

I was wondering when you'd find your

way back in here.

It's like walking back in time.

You know most of these places now.

Rome three times.

Is this snowy York?

Yeah, it is.

This renowned photographer,

Irene Walker, came here in the

nineties at this whole

series in New York.

She even came to her ranch and

met my mom.

She is the reason I'm a

photographer.

Irene has this really

unique ability to capture a person,

to countenance some small detail

and or a

tiny gesture that just really

captures the secret side of someone.

Something they might not even know

they're showing.

Like this one here.

The lady is looking away.

So the eye is drawn to her hands.

Never cracked.

Worn

hands. And in a laugh life.

You know I'm

much it.

And she didn't.

It just makes you really consider

her allegiance.

I wish I could be more invested in

my photography, but with all

this, running around in clients can

be difficult.

What?

I would have gone with you.

You would have hated every second

away from this place.

I know

that I would have gone.

That's why I didn't ask.

Well, first.

All your mum's old reels.

I love them up here after all.

Because I'm the place

someone.

Oh, is that Grandpa?

Oh.

Hey, Junebug, Look at that.

Oh, Gracie.

Never had that one.

We still have that wine.

Oh, I've got a lady and James.

Oh.

Wow.

Hmm.

You?

Oh, yeah, that is me.

Yeah. Bluetooth.

Yeah.

I didn't know you could play the

piano.

Yeah,

Sounds good.

Eating warm.

Warm

also keeps me.

That song you both wrote, it

was beautiful.

Mm. Yeah, that was

nice.

Let's move.

But it's the.

Looks like

right now.

That's what you mean?

Yeah.

I got the. Let's.

Let's rock you.

So he.

Gave you.

That is gorgeous.

And makes.

Who was That was our last Christmas

with mom.

That's good.

She'll be doing it.

I love it.

Let me see.

Middleton He's always been a bit

sticky.

I'll see what I can do.

I haven't played in years, but I

want to get back into it.

Yeah, you should.

Hey, James.

I wanted to test out this camera.

Are you.

Why can't we do this closer to the

rest?

Because the natural light is way

better out here.

Besides, I promised Juniper

I would scour the countryside for

some fresh mistletoe.

Shut your mouth.

How do you do that?

How do you do that?

You're white.

You make everything an enchanted

experience.

It's just playing.

You know, Juniper is going to go

mistletoe hunting every Christmas

for the rest of her life.

What makes you say that?

I know that's how you do things.

You take something like mistletoe,

which is a parasitic plant,

by the way, and you make

a magical.

You've made your life magic.

I don't know about that.

Starting to feel a little stuck.

I know the feeling.

So how did you know what to do?

I think about what I really want.

You take the risk.

But her hoof.

Went from the west the other evening

of the one I was telling you about.

Yes. You know, her house is up in

the hills.

There's something so intriguing

about her.

She's while I'm

talking, she's so enigmatic

and kind of mean and like,

this cowboy way.

Well, I found the mistletoe.

Almost forgot.

Nice to see some people still

appreciate film.

Would you like a knife to cut down

that mistletoe?

Okay, no peeking.

All right.

I promise.

Okay. Open your eyes.

You found the mistletoe.

We did.

Well, we had some help from this

woman in the place.

Where she had.

Christmas Angel.

An angel with a hatchet.

All right, you and Bug, close your

eyes.

Your dad has one more surprise for

you. Okay.

Keep them close.

I will.

Keep you.

They are.

Junebug.

Her surprise.

Wow.

It's perfect.

Yeah. This is crazy.

He got out.

Of the sound of that camera.

Clicking is driving me right down

memory lane.

You are just so wonderful to

photograph.

I remember your preference for

shooting my right side.

You got to. You are graceful

from every angle.

Thank you.

And also, we have.

Hay to horse.

So Junebug, every year.

And my mom and I would add an

ornament to the tree.

Something to remind us of the year

we had.

What a lovely tradition.

Black swan.

Oh, that one was

my first.

Cattle run.

And run.

You did?

Hey.

But this one.

Let's see.

Oh, no, that's Amy.

And that's John.

Let me see that.

Baby.

Dad.

This is you.

Yeah, that's me.

So what's it for?

Well, I was when.

I asked Amy to be my

best friend.

He.

So where should it go?

I don't think there's room in the

tree for that one, John.

But of course there's room.

One can go, right?

Yeah.

It looks good.

First thing

I want is

the reindeer.

Yeah.

Are.

Her voice would rather

be

in underneath the Christmas

tree.

I can hear the.

Sabers ring.

When I'm with you.

So you're actually.

Oh.

What are you scribbling away with?

Sending out the world's largest

party invitations.

Malvern, The post office at eight.

The last minute delivery.

Keep scrolling.

Do you know who this woman is?

Sure do.

It's Ivy.

Ivy? She owns the old cabin up

in the mountain.

Stern, but friendly enough.

She likes to keep to herself.

But your mother was able to coax it

down for a side or two back in the

day.

Look, I'm going to invite her to the

party.

And she doesn't often come into

town, but it's worth a try.

Stranger things have happened.

What's with the photo?

I thought I'd add one of my

photographs for every invite.

You know, a little bit of emotional

manipulation never hurt anyone.

Well, as a fox, you are my girl.

You know, whatever. The other

morning, the James

thing.

No.

You know, in the time that

he's been running this ranch

and he's been offered a move

for five positions,

running other ranches.

Really.

Some of them much better than

mistletoe.

He always declines.

Truth be told, darling, I suspect

we'd lost this place years ago if it

wasn't for James.

Of course.

I mean, you'd have to be full on to

see how talented he is.

I'm not surprised.

That's good. And he will sell the

ranch.

He'll end in his feet and our eyes.

And.

Amy.

Before your mother passed,

I promised I would look after this

ranch and look after you.

You have got to the ranch

and you have to everyone.

Part of looking after someone.

A part of loving them.

It's telling them things they don't

want to hear.

Okay.

Up on the mountain.

Eggrolls. This kind of weed.

That makes the hurt real and well.

Problem is, they can't

get enough of it.

No, No sooner had I cleared it out

one side of the field, the

silly cows are into it.

On the other side,

all of the of good hay going to

waste.

Sometimes we keep doing things that

are no good for us.

Charlie I'm with the cow in this

metaphor.

Amy Why are

you so interested in ways that are

no good for you when you have

a whole barn full of hay?

I have

to cut this out. But thank you,

Charlie.

Molly, I'm doing my

best.

Brought some mistletoe to decorate

the church.

Oh, thank you.

I do love this time of year.

I know.

I

wanted to see me.

Yeah,

There's quite a bit going

on from what I hear.

And what do you hear?

Oh, please.

I hear everything.

What are you going to do?

So I think

sell.

Someone's coming over tomorrow to

check out the place.

But I think it's time that I started

looking for a ranch. My own.

I'm fine.

I was talking about Amy.

Yeah, I know.

Ma'am, this is the longest Amy has

been in one place.

In a few days, you won't even have a

home here. She'll have no reason to

stay.

I wouldn't be so sure about that.

She made her mind up a long time

ago.

She left because I put

too much pressure on her.

I'm not doing that again.

She was a young girl who had just

lost her mother.

You never know.

Leaving might have been the best

thing she could have done for the

both of you.

What do you mean?

Maybe she needed to get away from

here.

From everything that reminded her of

what she'd lost so she

could heal and rebuild.

Some things we need to do on our

own.

She still loves you, James.

You remember this?

Of course I do.

Never knew what

I was.

Missing.

I never knew until

I found you.

And then I could hear

the.

Smuts was a.

Liffey.

I love the light shining

so bright.

Choirs of singing.

Who?

Kids will all of a sudden.

Then underneath the Christmas

tree.

In his neighboring.

No, Russell.

Then underneath the Christmas

tree.

I can hear the sleigh bells

ring.

Falling into your.

Finally, I feel safe

when you're holding me close.

So she kissed me

under the mistletoe.

Sorry.

Hi, Mike.

Hey.

Amy. Hi. Merry Christmas.

How's that, Ali?

Oh, it's fine. I'm still this

nightmare of a shoot,

but. Hey, Gustaf, want me to pass on

a message?

Okay.

He needs you to fly to Iceland.

Yeah. After Christmas to photograph

the Northern Lights.

Before

he needs you to fly out Christmas

Eve.

A reindeer herder is moving through

it. He wants to capture it.

No, Mike, I just got here this

enough time.

I know, but at least you can

parachute your way out of this

weird, romantic situation.

You know the one you want to tell me

about? I have to go because I want

to talk anymore.

But I booked. You were taking.

I'll text you. Okay.

Bye.

My God.

Also under the contract to look over

tomorrow.

Okay.

Nice meeting you.

Thanks for your time.

We'll talk to you.

Wow. That was awful.

Oh, I thought I went quite well.

Yeah, too.

Well, that's why it was awful.

Hey, I wonder if the new owners

would let us take the horses out

once in a while.

I'm sure they would.

Here, I got something to cheer you

up.

Really?

Yeah.

Oh, we're doing this.

Hmm.

He

tends

to follow Dale Sky

and I live beneath

the lawn

into now, only

to find a can of

field o

deep within the wind.

To witness the soul

begins to freeze.

I used to feel so scared

inside mountains where

I'll be.

Now in the eighties.

We are being.

You know, but

I don't, you know.

And athletes.

You do?

Not

really.

Huh. Now, you said you wanted to

work from a studio

to focus on your own projects,

and you can do that for me.

Yeah, well, there might not be here

for much longer.

Snowy Oaks not going anywhere.

Yeah.

Mm hmm.

And once the ranch is gone,

I don't have connection to the town

line.

Are you sure about that?

I don't like this one.

Do you know

how hard it

was to forget about you?

Hmm?

You were literally in the

DNA of this place.

Heavy snowfall

on Leaf Spring.

There. You're everywhere.

What was I supposed to do?

I stayed.

I would have ended up present you.

And then if I tried to hit me,

you would have ended up resenting me

in.

Just.

A couple of.

An hour by now.

Right now, you

do.

Not need.

And how does it work with you

running away again for a couple of

years?

Maybe you're just going to disappear

again after Christmas.

Hmm. What?

Because if.

Since the call I had last night.

I have to leave Christmas at last.

Seamus. It's my job.

It's the only option I have.

It's not the only option.

It's a safe one.

Guess you don't want to take the

risk with us.

Wait.

Why are you doing this?

James, I have a life in New York.

I have a job.

I have to make money.

Why did you come.

Back, Amy?

Why now?

Because I thought there was still

something between us.

Dad.

It's the last rehearsal for the

Christmas performance.

And now, Junebug, You mean Daddy

talking? Come on.

No, it's okay.

I'll take you, sweetheart.

I'm sorry to.

All right. Come here.

Oh,

my God.

Oh, boy.

That's pretty cool.

Oh,

my God.

I know you're going.

To go play

on the

and.

See.

Where

the rising.

I don't know what we want

to make

of.

On Fleet Street in.

Finally.

Better late than.

Never. Come on.

Go on up.

There. Okay, everybody.

One more time.

Do you mind an audience?

June one.

I missed you.

You look so big.

You got bigger.

Oh, dear.

Here we go.

The tour bus.

Broke down just outside of Boston.

I canceled the last few shows.

I got on the last train out of town,

and here I am.

A Christmas surprise.

So, Amy, are we ready for

the Christmas party tomorrow?

Jennifer is so excited.

She's been telling me all about it.

Well, the invitations have all come

back quiet sounding

perfect.

And Charlie has been cooking

up a storm.

This cherry pie is delicious.

I've been indulging in

Molly's old cookbooks.

Who'd have thought I'd turn my hand

to baking?

Well, an old cowboy needs a new

hobby.

Well, get up to mister.

Is this true?

It's looking like the magical

Christmas Eve.

To Molly.

To Molly.

Molly. Molly!

All right, well, we got a big day

tomorrow.

I think we should all get some

sleep.

Sage, and give you a lift back to

your place. That would be perfect.

And do we have.

And thank you.

Think we'll be right there.

Right?

That's right. And I know.

Amy.

I hope you don't mind me saying

your ranch has been a real constant

for my little girl, So

thank you.

Of course.

I mean, that was always my mother's

way, and I've

been happy to continue it for as

long as I could.

CONAN And I think.

Might, Charlie.

Nothing is final until you've signed

on the dotted line.

I don't know what to do, Holly.

You've gone and long gone

and.

Then there's this whole thing with

the ranch and James.

He used to be so happy here.

They'll come in and processing.

Hey, I thought you'd like to know.

I spoke to a potential buyer.

We have to make a decision on their

offer.

Yeah.

Yeah. Okay.

I mean, it's inevitable, isn't it?

Yeah, it seems that way.

Hey, James.

Yeah.

I know I hurt you when

I left.

Yeah, a lot going on.

And I learned to accept that.

And I can't imagine how difficult

it would be to lose a mother.

I'm.

Sorry

that I couldn't do more.

Hey.

Looks like you.

Got enough to keep the whole village

warm.

Well, that's good, because tonight

we are keeping the whole village

warm.

This thing is a big deal around

here.

Charlie says Amy.

Has melted your cold, cold heart.

Okay, you can.

There's a door shut.

It's nice to see the place like this

has a soul again.

She is good for you.

Don't tell me you haven't told.

Her how you feel.

It's complicated.

It's complicated.

You don't have to tell me that

in a long time.

And she's.

Here now.

I know.

And we tried our best.

We are better as friends and as

your friend. I want what's best for

you.

Don't let the one get away.

And we'll

be together once

again.

Merry Christmas.

I found me home so

full of love.

I loved the

time with the loved ones

hanging gifts on

the tree.

One ball and I breath.

Grandpa.

But want some

TV?

Christmas Eve cookies and a carrot

as a three part

series.

Mrs..

Merry Christmas.

Excuse me.

You come here already.

What?

Are you excited?

Yeah.

And

look, why don't you.

A present.

Oh.

Never gets anyone presents

except for me.

Of course. Of course.

Are you really leaving tonight?

I am.

I have to go to the North Pole

to take pictures of Santa Claus and

his reindeer.

My dad is going to miss you.

I'm going to miss him, too.

I'm going to miss everyone.

You were Friday.

Benito.

Coming, Mom.

Hey, you are.

Come on over here.

You ready to go?

All right.

I'm head inside. Okay.

Oh, How you feeling?

That tonight or any of this thing?

Yeah.

Amy, you look beautiful.

You look beautiful.

Thank you.

I suppose I should probably greet

everyone.

Well, you are the lady of the house.

Go get.

Good evening, everyone.

I am

I am delighted to welcome you here

to this little ranch.

On this fine occasion,

my mother, Molly, who many

of you knew, she loved Christmas.

And now I love it to.

Christmas reminds us that

magic isn't something that you just

stumble upon or something

that disappears as we get older.

Magic is something you make.

I don't know what the future holds

for the ranch,

but what I do know is that there is

a special place in my heart for

everyone I have left in this house.

And tonight I

welcome you all to share that.

So, Merry Christmas, everyone.

There is a.

Holy night,

the stars are brightly

shone.

I mean, it is

the night of the

deer saviors bird.

Lay the world.

In sin and never.

Meaning too.

He appeared and

the soul found its

way.

304.

Oh.

You have great choices.

Well, you know, I'm just.

I knew.

Than.

Oh.

When crisis.

Oh.

Ow!

Ow,

ow,

Ow!

Did you take this photo?

I did.

Got any more?

Hmm.

Interesting.

Did I offend you?

That wasn't my intention.

Are you self-taught?

I studied in Paris.

Hmm.

I should probably get back to the

party.

I've seen enough.

I don't know whether to be offended

or not.

I'd like to work with you.

I have a new contract coming up for

a series of portraits of the best

and brightest of the New York art

scene.

But they want to shoot on location

here in New York.

Well, clearly, you're the best

person for the job.

What do you think?

I'm sorry. I don't understand.

I know your work.

I think it's 116.

No, no, no. 1 to 2 is my favorite.

I've.

I see

you're hiring more.

You are my hero.

The reason I became a photographer.

What are you doing in here?

What are you doing? Holding

Christmas parties.

I'm already working

as an assistant photographer.

I don't want an assistant.

I want a partner.

And I'll be fully credited for my

work.

But you can say Santa Claus took

them if you want.

I don't mean to be rude and talk to

figures off the bat, but I.

Have pressing expenses.

It's more than enough to pay off

this place, if that's what you're

wondering.

How did you know?

Oh, it's a small town.

I mean, this is an old ranch, and

it's a very handsome commission.

Come to my place tomorrow.

I'll get something drawn up and you

can look at my studio.

You can work for me.

Oh, wait.

I'm supposed to be hopping on a

plane tonight on Iceland.

Suit yourself.

But, I mean, what do you want?

Do what you want.

Oh.

Oh.

Hey, did you see that.

Ivy was here last time

she was traipsed up to the ranch was

when she took your mother's photo.

I think it's a bit of a hobby.

Yeah, that's Irene Moore.

I think she prefers Ivy.

I have to find James.

It's nice to see a family in the

house again.

You know, I always thought

he'd buy this place.

I told him to talk to you about it,

but he said he never wanted

to. Cause you, any of us

cares for you so much.

He said that this would always be

your family home.

It is a family home,

but it's just not mine.

I'm going to step out for a moment.

Can you say good night to James for

me?

Are you sure?

Yeah.

It's time to move on.

Another thing is.

Knowing I.

Haven't seen her Dad.

Yeah.

Okay.

Amy, got you a present.

Thought you could open it.

Okay.

Hmm.

She's giving me the ranch.

She knew you wanted to buy, but held

off to spare our feelings.

She needs a reason to stay.

Honey, you need to talk to her

before she leaves her Iceland.

I need my coffee.

I'll get it.

Come on.

Quickly. Before you lose.

Her to a reindeer herder.

She's never going to accept the

money from me.

She doesn't need the money.

I'm sorry.

Some famous photographers just

offered her a fortune.

It's not the money she needs.

Dad.

Don't forget to give her your gift.

Thank you. Of course.

They're amazing.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

The stables.

Stables?

You mean?

It's funny.

And you have all this time and then

one day it's

too late.

It's not too late.

James, what are you doing here?

You should be with your family

celebrating Christmas Eve.

So you're leaving.

Right thing to do.

Well, if that's how you feel, then.

God. Open your present.

Open.

I was hoping this would convince

you to stay.

I know you can afford the ranch.

You and your family belong here.

Amy.

You are my family.

This place.

They know that you.

Really? Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Why it took me so long to get back

to you.

My heart is never to anyone.

Thank you.

Why?

I you know, I am always chasing

an

image on the.

You're not chasing me.

Know.

Looking for signs.

Just worked my

way through the day.

Charter he between

the lines.

But I'm a million miles

away.

Just since five.

Don't know what happens after.

None of it.

Seems to matter.

On pace to go

to nine.

I'm gonna find.

Home sick taking the.

To say.

In the shadows.

On my way home taken.

Hey, hold.

None of it seems to matter.

Only one place to go

I

Looking for sign.

Just light.

No way through the

dark.
