As I was looking through images of the upcoming Hallmark Channel movie Stranded in Paradise I saw this picture of actress Vanessa Marcil where she looks like she is taking some leisure time on the beach reading a book.
Curiosity got the best of me, so I took a look closer at the book she is reading and low and behold the book is Diann Hunt's For Better or For Worse, which incidentally, just recently became a Hallmark Channel movie! I can't help but wonder, will she mention the book in this movie? Or, is the book just merely a prop? See the movie Stranded in Paradise, which stars Vanessa Marcil and James Denton, on August 9th, 2014 on the Hallmark Channel!
Seeing this picture reminded me that I know of 2 more Hallmark Movies, which have references to other Hallmark Movies.
Here they are...
The first movie is A Carol Christmas,
which stars Tori Spelling as a Talk Show host. If you look closely when Carol (Tori) is walking down a hallway at work, there is a poster in the background for the Hallmark Movie Straight from the Heart.
The second movie with another Hallmark movie reference is the Hallmark Hall of Fame movie Silver Bells.
At the beginning of the movie, the young girl says she wants to watch a Christmas Movie that night. A Season For Miracles.
Which is, of course, another Hallmark Hall of Fame Movie!Have you ever caught another Hallmark movie moment like this in another Hallmark movie? If so, please share! And, let's be sure to keep our eyes and ears open for more!
I sure hope the new Mr. Miracle movie makes some reference or mention of the Mrs. Miracle movies. Would that count?
ReplyDeleteI hope they do, too! And, yes, I definitely think that would count! Let's be sure to keep a look out for it!
DeleteThank you again for all your wonderful information for us old folks. Do you know when Hallmark will continue with "When Calls The heart?" It has been a truly beautiful story of love and concern for Coal Valley.
ReplyDeleteOh, thank you! Glad you enjoy all the movie information. "When Calls the Heart" will be back in May of 2015 with Season 2. I agree, it is a wonderful Hallmark T.V. series.
DeleteThat is so super cool! I am so glad you caught that. Now I am going to watch it and look for that moment when she is reading and see if she says something about it. Thanks for the heads up!
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked this news, as well. I thought it was pretty cool and clever of Hallmark. Perhaps, if we are all looking for this moment, one of us will catch something!
DeleteWow! I never notice anything like that! I swear, you should be a mystery writer! LOL You are so good at sleuthing!

LOL! Thanks Misty! You know I always love a good mystery! I'm looking forward to seeing if the book has any meaning to this story.
DeleteI love this little Easter Egg! And Stranded in Paradise happens to be a book turned movie as well! I'm hoping to read it before the premiere on Saturday because I've been dying to read some "Hallmark in a book" books. :-D
ReplyDeleteYes, it's like discovering a hard to find Easter Egg!
DeleteHope you were able to read the book before the movie premiered!!! Would love to know how close the movie was to the book. ???

Hey, Misty, I agree with you! Net should be a mystery writer. Leave it to her to find all these little nuggets and reveal them to us (me) who totally missed all those perks. LOL!!..........so observant, Net!!
ReplyDeleteI truly love that idea, Linda! Mystery writer! So fun!

On "Cedar Cove", Debbie Macomber’s books have been seen on the show, being displayed at the library or sitting on someone’s bookshelf. There have also been times when authors have made cameo or guest appearances in Hallmark productions. Two examples I can think of are when Karen Kingsbury appeared in the first part of “The Bridge” and when Debbie Macomber appeared twice on “Cedar Cove”.
ReplyDeleteThat is an excellent point! It's fun finding those little interesting tidbits! I remember seeing their books and the authors, as well! :)
