About The Christmas Thief
Lana Lawton, a fledgling private eye home for the holidays, realizes the only way to save her career is by solving a string of local burglaries where the main suspect is Santa Claus. With little evidence and having to contend with a local detective with an investigative style that clashes with hers, the season may prove to be anything but holly and jolly.
Directed by Danny Salles, The Christmas Thief leans on a strong ensemble — Michelle Borth, Jarrid Masse, Vivica A. Fox — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about tv movie titles of 2021.
