The Christmas Card

US Army sergeant Cody Cullen's horror tour in Afghanistan ends when his mate Jonesy is blown to pieces while they deliver medical supplies in Nurestan. Cody is sent home to return private possessions to Jonesy's bride turned widow. On his way home he passes Nevada City, California, where he meets Faith Spelman, who writes the parish's Christmas cards to lonely soldiers, coincidentally including him, an orphan. He happens to save her dad Luke from a serious car run-over. The Spellmans invite Cody home for dinner, then the Christmas tide. He proves a great help in the family logging firm. Vietenam vet Luke wants Cody as son-in-law, but although charmed, Faith still seems committed to rarely present fiancé Paul, a wine broker.

This film receives our seal (The Dove Foundation) as it has very little objectionable material. Early in the film is a simulated battle scene with no blood but it could be disagreeable to those with loved ones overseas. There were a few scenes with kissing but overall, this film was incredibly family-friendly. Gather the family around for this one.
