An Advent calendar of holiday movies to fulfill heartfelt desires.

All I want for Christmas is… someone who will move mountains to make Christmas safe and secure for me, and protect me from the awfulness of the world.

And the film for that is (click or tap):

2008's Frozen River

2008’s Frozen River.

US: stream on Paramount+ (via Prime and Apple TV); rent/buy on Prime and Apple TV

UK: stream on BFI Player (via Prime and Apple TV); rent/buy on Prime and Apple TV

See Frozen River at Letterboxd for more viewing options, including in all other global regions.

When you rent or purchase a film through my Prime and Apple links, I get a small affiliate fee that helps support my work. Please use them if you can! (Affiliate fees do not increase your cost.)
