Christmas is coming a bit early for fans of holiday films and movies with Northeast Ohio ties. Two Christmas movies that used Medina and other Northeast Ohio locations as backdrops over last winter now have dates when they will begin streaming.

And both feature the same actor as the romantic interest. “ The Great Chocolate Date ” is set to begin streaming on Plex on Tuesday, Nov. 10. The movie directed by Lindsay Hartley weaves the tale of an overworked chiropractor who receives a decadent gift of chocolate.

Sky High: Goodyear Balloonists Made History in 1913
Goodyear balloonists Ralph H. Upson and R.A.D. Preston covered 384 miles during the 1913 Gordon Bennett Cup international balloon race, which they won. Here, they pose in front of the Goodyear balloon they piloted during the race — which started in Paris, France. They raced for over 43 hours and 30 minutes.
