6 Christmas Movies You Can Watch With The Family

Serayah plays a down-on-her-luck caretaker to children belonging to the wealthy, handsome, sought-after Neyo.

Serayah boldly reintroduces a new way to enjoy the sound of Christmas. Watch what happens when one man sets aside superficial facades of what it means to be present for a holiday.
- The First Noelle– Novi Brown, Lala Milan, and Todd Anthony explore the depths of unrequited love. When lovers and friends, Brown and Anthony, reconnect after time and distance apart, one is left wondering did they let their one true love slip away. When Anthony shows up with a new love interest played by Lala Milan, pride is swallowed or, more like, stuffed down Brown’s throat. Faced with the trajectory of her career advancing if she secures a win for the company, Brown attempts to have her cake and eat it too. Befriending the new girlfriend under the guise of being BFF’s with Anthony, she goes for the gusto when trying to steal her man back just in time for the holidays.
