His & Her Christmas is a 2005 Christmas comedy directed by Farhad Mann, starring Dina Meyer, David Sutcliffe and April Telek.

Plot: Tom Lane is the lead columnist for the San Francisco Sun newspaper, which is owned by the media conglomerate. The company is considering increasing Tom's exposure by producing a new TV show around him. Liz Madison is the advice columnist for the little-read community newspaper, the Marin County Voice, which is a throwback to quieter times. Apart from their journalism occupations, another similar aspect between Tom and Liz is that they are both currently single, with their friends and family doing everything they can to find that special someone for their personal life. On November 2, The Voice staff learns that the Sun ownership has purchased their newspaper, with the probable goal of folding it into Sun operations. If this move occurs, the Voice staff will lose their jobs. To fight back, Liz decides to change her column to an editorial that marries the meaning of Christmas and the newspaper to the community. Due to the feisty and fun attitude of Liz's new column, The Voice's circulation increases so much that the owner has second thoughts about closing it, which in turn would endanger Tom's new TV show. To protect his career advancement, Tom decides to write a counterpoint column to Liz's, his one about instilling some practicality into Christmas. The competing columns become a personal battle for the two pundits. But as Tom and Liz express their mutual contempt, their respective friends try to convince them of the old adage that there is a fine line between love and hate.
