Synopsis: Three girlfriends meet for their monthly dinner party. But this month one traumatizes the other two by claiming, "Together we make up the perfect woman: you're the brains, you're the personality, and I'm the beauty." Chaos ensues. Six months later the three are separated at a time when they need each other most. One is about to have a baby. One is making career and life changes that include posing nude right after earning a PhD. The other is struggling to be more than simply 'the beauty'...and failing miserably. Ultimately, the three women define themselves and their friendships beyond beauty, brains, and personality. They are women, after all, and reserve the right to change their minds any time they feel like it. | ||||

Synopsis: Ten-year-old Edward Krieger doesn't want Santa Claus to stop by this year. Why not? Because there's too much yelling at his house. Claus himself writes back: "Ed, you threw Santa Claus for a loop. The last time somebody told me not to come, the guy's name was Scrooge. I had to send out three of my best people to work him over." Thus begins an innocent correspondence. But Mr. Claus is a busy man, and Edward is busy himself, growing up, beginning to notice a certain Miss Shannon Lunt...and helping his family through a rough time. Through his letters, Santa inspires Eddie to bring Christmas to his family and friends all year long...even when that means doing something yucky like telling his big sister that he loves her. Of course, Santa picks up a few pointers along the way from his young protege as well. But as Eddie's family continues to struggle with loss and new hopes, Eddie asks one more Christmas wish of The Fellow In The Red Suit. This time Eddie needs a real miracle. | ||||
