Crown for Christmas

Allie Foster, a struggling artist in New York, loses her job at a luxury hotel and reluctantly takes work as governess to a young girl from a powerful European family living in a castle. The child turns out to be Princess Theodora of Winshire, a rebellious girl who has driven away previous governesses. Allie and Theodora gradually form a bond, and Allie also draws the attention of King Maximillian, who is expected to marry a woman chosen for him rather than one he loves. A countess in the court opposes the growing closeness between the governess and the king.

It sits seventh in the chronological list of Zamm's eleven directed features, between Jingle All the Way 2 and Woody Woodpecker.
