What it is

It's the Christmas season, but Christy Byrne (Tate Donovan) hasn't felt much joy since his wife died. When business brings him and his two children from Nova Scotia to New York City, his all-work attitude causes a fallout. Meanwhile, Catherine O'Meara (Anne Heche) is finding her "Look Up" project for a Manhattan art museum personally challenging. The project urges New Yorkers to look upward and experience the holidays in a new way—a difficult notion for a woman struggling through her third Christmas since losing her husband to cancer. Although their paths cross often, Catherine and Christy remain emotionally isolated until a crisis draws them together and they rediscover faith, hope, and love.

Silver Bells Very good choice to watch not only around the holidays but throughout the year should you need an uplifting movie. My wife and I watch this usually 4 times a year. February 27, 2013
Silver Bells I enjoyed the story line, the setting & the characters February 27, 2013
silver bells I had been looking for this movie on dvd for a long time. when i first seen this movie on tv, i wanted to add this to my collection, so i could watch through out year. Hallmark needs to do that with alot more of the movies you have showed on tv. February 23, 2013
Very thin plot. Although I love almost every Hallmark movie I've seen, this is not a favorite. The actors are good at their craft, but the plot is very thin and doesn't hold up. They are in NYC, the son disappears, and yet no one puts out a missing persons report? The father just keeps selling his trees? The Anne Heche character allows him to worry over his son like that? Also, I found the father very unappealing, unaccountably harsh and demanding. I don't care if he would have been the greatest looking guy in the world and rich as Midas, he was a COMPLETE turn off with barely a redeemable trait through most of the movie. Sorry, can't recommend! February 19, 2013

Silver Bells This is one of my favorite Hallmark Christmas movies. I've watched it each year since it first aired - and I didn't hesitate a moment in purchasing it. (Though I wish it were in widescreen like the tv airing!) The situation of the father wanting his son to pursue the father's dreams and work in his business, and the son wanting to follow his own path, is certainly present all-too-often in the world. The healing that takes place over Christmas is heart-warming and realistic. November 20, 2012
