From Peter Chelsom, the director of “Serendipity”, a new heartwarming family film, “A sudden case of Christmas“, premieres at Alice nella Città in Rome.
The film, all shot in the glorious italian Dolomites, sees the participation of Danny De Vito, his daughter Lucy and the young Antonella Rose, in the leading role.
Antonella Rose plays Claire, a 10 year old American girl, who finds out that the only reason she was brought, during summer, at her grandfather’s hotel in The Dolomites, was that he could be the one to tell her about her parents’ splitting up.
Danny De Vito, who plays Lawrence, Claire’s grandfather in the film, tells her that she’s a catalyst as she’s a boost for the people surrounding her.
With his experience in family films and romantic comedies, Peter Chelsom then tries to define what makes a Christmas movie. Then, he proceeds to explain in which ways, A sudden case of Christmas, in italian “Ops!È già Natale” is an italian film.
Plot
An American couple bring their 10 year old daughter, Claire, to her grandfather Lawrence’s hotel in The Dolomites, Italy. They usually come for Christmas but this year it’s August. The fact is they are breaking up and want Lawrence to be the one to tell Claire, especially as he has such a special relationship with his granddaughter. OnceClaire realizes there’s not going to be a family Christmas this year, she insists on everyone making it Christmas right here, right now in August, including flying in her other grandparents. Claire, in collusion with her grandfather, plan activities that are designed to re-unite her parents. The whole process backfires and actually puts her grandparents’ marriage into unexpected difficulties.
A fun, warm, touching family comedy, all shot in the glorious Dolomites, Italy.
