In Harper, we get an early glimpse of a problematic self-focus when she interrupts Abby's story about why she doesn't like Christmas mid-sentence (which we find out later is because of the death of her parents). Meanwhile, Harper pulls Abby along a Christmas light walking tour while their hilarious guide (Michelle Buteau) drops knowledge about Christmas Trees' destructive forces. It’s so obvious where they’re going and that we're going along with them for the ride. Then the huggable Nick (whose eyes' tinsel) and Emmett, his huggable dog, come home, and Nick and Peter banter back and forth about going or not going to this annual plaid holiday shindig. The distinction? We meet Peter watering his myriad "heartbreak" plants (one per failed relationship). However, Single All The Way's Peter (Michael Urie) and Nick (Philemon Chambers) edge out Happiest Season’s Abby (Kristen Stewart) and Harper (Mackenzie Davis). Single All The Way Round One: Two Lovable Leadsīoth films are fresh takes on the Christmas rom-com with "lovable leads'' representing the LGBTQ+ community.

Hence, my off-brand Verzuz, we'll call Verses (as in lines of prose, you know, since they’re scripts). Each round, the artists' respective hits matched and measured against the other to pick a winner, often ending in just common appreciation for the other. These events squared off artists with similar styles like Erykah Badu vs. Fast forward to the beginning of this interminable “panoramic pandemonia” when the world was sipping “quarantinis” day and night, Timbaland and Swizz Beatz started a random IG DJ battle that morphed into a must-watch bona-fide mega phenom: Verzuz.

Rosie O Donnell is solid support to Ryan as is Bill Pullman, and Ross Malinger manages to avoid all the cliché's of most chicks actors! Well directed, with a sharp and witty script.

He is heartbreakingly excellent as the widower. Both are very different, but are equally brilliant.
