Romantic Christmas movies on Netflix: Holiday in the Wild
Ernie Barbarash is a prolific director in the industry who has some significant experience bringing audiences heartfelt moments with romantic Christmas motion pictures that make audiences cry, laugh and fall in love all before the credits roll. Some of his credits within the genre include Christmas Inheritance, Christmas in Rome, A Royal Winter, and a particular film that was released on Netflix in November 2019 that features a rock-solid cast and a wild premise that will add so much value to the season. Holiday in the Wild stars Sex and The City star Kristen Davis, Parks and Recreation’s Rob Lowe, and even features his own son John Owen Lowe.
In Holiday in the Wild, Davis’s character Kate surprises her husband with a surprise second honeymoon to Zambia for them to take now that their son is off to college. Unfortunately, Kate’s husband reveals he is no longer in love with her and has been waiting for this day to call things off. Despite the loss, Kate goes anyway and ends up rescuing an orphaned baby elephant and growing an emotional bond with the animal while it heals at a sanctuary. There she also celebrates the holidays and may have just found a new love interest that could forever change her life. The film available on Netflix is a brilliant feel-good story that offers up something much different than other films within the genre.
