Uma Babá Milagrosa em Nova York

It has a heartwarming story and Doris Roberts is fantastic. I actually hadn't seen the first in the "Mrs Miracle" series prior to watching this one and I could still follow along with no problem, as they were about two different families. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a feel-good holiday movie. The whole family will enjoy it.

To my surprise, this turns out to be one of my favorites among the many "Made for Television" holiday movies. The cast is an ensemble that does this heart warming story justice. It has a number of inner stories that all seem to get tied together in the end. Obviously, the love interest, but also the father who has stopped celebrating, the child taken away from a father by the war, the up and coming designer trying to make a go of it, the son who is trying to show his worth, and a number of other little threads to get tied together. And, you cannot miss Lauren Holly as the fashion designer. She is hilarious. There is a little something for everyone. Just a simple Christmas story to sit back and make you appreciate the holidays and bring a smile or two. If you don't like this one, you should probably be celebrating a different holiday.

10/10 - a good Hallmark throwback that will get you in the spirit and make you eek out a tear or two

Hallmark specializes in Christmas movies, and this one punches all the emotional buttons. Indeed, the story of "Miracle in Manhattan" AKA "Debbie Macomber's Call Me Mrs. Miracle" is like a large jigsaw puzzle that miraculously resolves into a perfect Christmas snow scene for the holiday.

Jewel Staite ("Firefly") plays Holly, a pleasant young woman who works for Lindy Lowe (Lauren Holly), a designer of women's clothes who is the prototypical horrible boss. Holly meets store manager Jake (Eric Johnson) and somehow bumps into him again and again. At the center of this Christmas tale is Mrs. Miracle (Doris Roberts), a seasonal employee at Jake's store who may be more than just the nosy interloper she appears to be.

Those who are suckers for sappy Christmas stories with benign paranormal forces at work will appreciate the heart in this TV movie.

This movie has everything you need at Christmas. A great script. Fine acting and a Christmas spirit that can't be planned or written. This movie just works. Impossible to find btw. I had to buy it as a Region 2 DVD from Germany!
