The Best Queer Holiday Movies to Make the Yuletide Gay

Wonderful write-up on ‘Under the Christmas Tree’ in Vulture!

Lifetime’s new and first-ever lesbian Christmas movie is a legitimately good queer film in which the main character, Alma (Elise Bauman), is not only accepted by her Maine-based, small-Christmas-business-owner parents for being a lesbian but also encouraged to fall in love with out-of-town stranger Charlie (Tattiawna Jones). Cheesy as it is, the premise is as sweet as it is predictable with plenty of fun, memorable scenes and unexpected moments thrown in. And perhaps against all odds, there’s at least one decent queer-sex joke in this PG-rated made-for-TV seasonal flick, which definitely has annual-watch potential.
