A Christmas Snow Characters

Kathleen
Type: Starring
Gender: Female
Age Range: 35-45
Description: Kathleen is a very organized person who has little time  
for other people. When she was ten years old, her father left the  
family. Kathleen still blames her mother for his departure and has had  
little contact with her mother since leaving home.

Kathleen runs a successful restaurant. She is a great cook and has  
built a reputation of providing the best food in the county. She has  
found her identity in the success of the business. The Maitre d' and  
Chef are the closest thing she has to a family.

Kathleen has been dating Andrew for about six months. This is the  
first real relationship that she has ever had. She feels that Andrew  
is getting serious and is going to ask her to marry him, and that this  
is the reason that Andrew continues to try to get Kathleen and his  
daughter Lucy to spend more time together. This scares Kathleen and  
she resists Andrew's efforts.

Sam
Type: Starring
Gender: Male
Age Range: Upper 60's
Description: Sam is the source of wisdom and peace in this film. He is  
slow to answer, but when he does it is with chunks of wisdom. He has a  
place in his heart for Kathleen and Lucy and is instantly drawn to the  
girls when he meets them. He sincerely wants to help in any way he can  
and is very appreciative of Kathleen for allowing him to stay at her  
house.

When we see Sam, we need to see a man of experience - someone who has  
been around the block a few times and is not surprised by anything  
that happens. He is a thinker and does not jump to judgment quickly.

her mother. Lucy has turned Kathleen's attempts to reach out against  
her. She has also made up stories about Kathleen and has tried to  
convince her father that Kathleen is bad.
