I know when I have seen a good movie...when I wake up the next morning and it is the first thing I think of. Perhaps it is because of the "back story of the director", perhaps it is because of the emotional acting, perhaps it is because of the underlying subjects of grace and forgiveness. Whatever it is, you need to see for yourself. Just make sure you have a tissue nearby.
Today more than ever before, our world needs stories of hope, family and undying love. Most of all, we need each other. Gather your family and friends and watch this movie...be prepared to have your heart touched.

Wow, where to start. I knew this movie masterpiece was going to be a tear jerker, I did not know however that Robert Lasardo charter 'Mouse Sanchez' would have me forgetting that I was watching a movie. Mr. Lasardo is such a powerful actor. We need to see more of this brilliant soul. Iconic Sally Kirkland, what can I possibly say about a living legend that has not already been said. Mind-blowing to note this is Director Ricky Borba Directorial debut. He seems so seasoned. I can not even begin to imagine where he pulled from when I read 'Hope for the Holidays' is life imitating art. Thank you Robert 'Mouse' Lasardo for pulling out all the stops, amazing job sir.

Hope for the Holidays is a beautiful, touching and heartwarming film. The entire cast was wonderful, especially Sally Kirkland who really shined in this story. This is wonderful holiday movie that the whole family will enjoy. Have plenty of tissues on hand because this story is very moving. I highly recommend it!

Ricky Borba's HOPE FOR THE HOLIDAYS is a wonderful film! Marvelous cast and beautiful story! I'm like, 'there's no way this film is going to make me cry', but dang-it-all if Sally Kirkland didn't have me reaching for the tissue box! Seriously, this film is a MUST SEE! Sally Kirkland and Robert LaSardo are both absolutely phenomenal in this, as are Doug Hutchison and George Stultz! Congratulations to Ricky and everyone, for delivering a solid, heartfelt Christmas film, that truly fills your heart with hope!

- TriviaDirector Ricky Borba was asked to direct and given the script in May of 2017. Two months later his own mother was diagnosed with Stage IV cancer and died seven weeks later. But during her treatment, Ricky Borba rewrote the character of Georgia Petros to reflect what his mother said and did during her battle with cancer. Almost all of Georgia's dialogue in the film ended up being what Ricky Borba's mother told him in real life.
