A Christmas Together With You is about a Frank, an older-aged adult, who goes on a road trip with his young friend, Megan. Megan convinces Frank to go on the road trip to find Claire, his first true love. Frank is a father figure to Megan. I grew irritated with Frank because he wasn’t totally honest with Megan. Megan mistakenly assumes that Claire broke up with Frank. But, she realizes later that Frank broke Claire’s heart years ago. He tells Megan that he asked Claire’s dad if he could marry Claire. Her dad said “no”. The reason Claire’s dad declined was because Frank didn’t have any money and he didn’t think Frank would be a suitable mate for his daughter. So, Frank skipped town after Claire’s dad rejected him.
Megan finds a love interest in this movie. She makes a connection with Steve, a worker at the inn where Megan and Frank are staying during their trip. She uses her culinary skills to help Steve and she’d like to own her own catering business one day.
What I found odd, and truly puzzling about this movie, is that Frank never told Claire about her father’s rejection. After her father rejects him, as already mentioned, Frank leaves town, and Claire never hears the truth about what occurred. If Frank had simply told Claire what happened years ago, she would not have been so bitter against him during the movie. Initially, she’s not willing to accept Frank back into her life because of his abandonment years ago. They were in love. And then Frank left with no good-bye, and with no explanation. It would’ve only taken him a few minutes to tell Claire what had transpired.
Granted, he does reveal all of this to Claire now, when both of them are older adults. I did like that this movie had two older adults falling in love again.
