"Do you think you could move my room as far from the festivities as possible?" O Santa! Why are thou so bearded and jolly? O Night Divine is a 43-minute long (!!) promotional holiday short film made by the clothing company Zara. I'm not sure if they knew what they were getting into when they hired filmmaker Luca Guadagnino to make this, but in the end we all get to enjoy this lovely holiday advertising film. The short is set in St. Moritz, Switzerland (of course it is) and takes place on Christmas Eve, following a man named Hugo who is a busker. His crush is a woman who arrives at the hotel for her shift and walks right by him. There are other hotel workers featured in this, telling the story of their "outrageous adventures and joyous celebration" on this snowy Christmas Eve. John C. Reilly stars as Santa, with a cast including Alex Wolff, Hailey Gates, Samia Benazzouz, Chloe Park, Valerio Santucci, Francesca Figus, Tania Hanyoung Park, Shi Yang Shi. This is cute and charming, but way too long overall. Still worth a watch. ›››
