• Hewitt lost her mom, which made the 'magic' of Christmas feel lost - so she channeled that pain into the film, infusing it with emotional authenticity.
• The movie, titled 'The Holiday Junkie,' marks a major career milestone for Hewitt, who's known for her acting roles but is now stepping behind the camera for the first time.
