Christmas at Cadillac Jack’s is the story of a road trip. Joe Jenkins is a grandfather mourning the loss of his wife, but now attached to a new girlfriend, Rose (Ruta Lee). They are on the way to meet Rose’s daughter who she gave up 40 years before, but car trouble causes them to stop at a roadside diner “Cadillac Jack’s” while their car is repaired. But trouble follows as things go wrong. There are a number of mix-ups that cause some big misunderstandings. Will Rose make it to Omaha in time to find her daughter before it’s too late?
This is a touching little Christian movie. It is a simple story (and very short, about an hour) that is a lot like a touching Christmas Twilight Zone episode, but that’s not really what they’re after. It’s a mystery story, but in the end we have learned a lot about the cost of mistakes we have made in our lives, and how things can be forever changed by decisions we make. We also learn that it’s never too late to make amends.
This is a very heartwarming tale and is a good story that appears from time to time on the Christian networks. It’s good if you can find it.
