If I were to make a dish named Hot Frosty - it would be a dessert and would have a frozen outside and a hot melted inside. And I think maybe peppermint or vanilla flavours for the frozen mousse. Melting chocolate on the inside and everything in a pool of hot dark chocolate.
But that's not the Hot Frosty that's popular this year. And indeed it is "The Hot Frosty" not "A Hot Frosty" this year - it is a Netflix movie in which actor Dustin Milligan shows off his abs when he comes to life from being a snowman. Who would guess big, fat, round balls of snow would transform into - well look below. Seems like it is tempting to click on the visit button to find out more.
Here is on plot summary: "Two years after losing her husband, Kathy (Lacey Chabert) magically brings a handsome snowman (Dustin Milligan) to life! Through his naïveté, the snowman helps Kathy to laugh, feel and love again, as the two fall for each other just in time for the holidays... and before he melts."
There have been millions of views of this movie - that means a lot of talk and explanation of the movie..
Another: A grieving widow and a little Christmas magic turn a six-pack-sporting snowman into a helpful household himbo in a delightful Christmas-themed romantic comedy.
This one "explains" the ending: It was only after Kathy fell in love with Jack that the universe granted her wish and helped him become completely human. His body temperature was no longer low, and for the first time, he experienced a shiver. Kathy was overjoyed, and she kissed Jack while the entire town cheered for them. Nothing is impossible on Christmas—a woman could fall in love with a snowman! Jack continued to live with Kathy. He gifted her a home repair manual, and she bought him tickets to Hawaii. He had always wanted to travel there, and now that there were no chances of him melting away, Kathy thought it was the perfect opportunity.
And an actual review: Considering the current state of the world, how can I complain about a successful bit of holiday cheer and escapism? Hot Frosty embraces its ridiculous premise — yes, this is a hot snowman with abs — but adds enough holiday magic to make this more than pumping iron, Yuletide edition.
The CBC Radio interviewed Russell Hainline who is the writer/author of this screenplay. He also pens Hallmark movies. He doesn't seem to worry that he's the writer of fluffy stuff - he seems to have a fun attitude all-round.
This started as a motion blur image of the pond at Charles Daley Park, and then it got the water colour plugin treatment. It seems like a Winter Solstice-themed image now.
