I think a lot of younger viewers might not be aware of all the parallels and references to the singing duo the Everly Brothers (who had a string of top ten hits in the late 1950s - early 1960s) in "One December Night". As a longtime fan of the Everly Brothers, I found "One December Night" to be a bit tasteless especially considering that Don Everly just passed a few months ago. There was one parallel after another between the fictional duo in the movie and actual events in the lives of the Everly Brothers. I won't go into all the references but in the first ten minutes of the movie, I counted about 8 of them. Perhaps if the movie had been shown in 2022 instead of now, I might not have felt so uncomfortable with it. Don and Phil both have living spouses, adult children, grandchildren, and quite a large extended family. I realize the movie was filmed before Don died but I think Hallmark should have taken that into consideration before airing the film this year.
