PLOT:
Storyline via Lifetime: Two rival musicians, Lindsay (Sokoloff) and Wes (Mayes), who perform in a dueling piano show, suddenly find themselves without a gig on Christmas Eve and decide to road trip to their neighboring hometowns together. During the drive, the mismatched pair find themselves surrounded by Santa conventioneers, saving a Christmas nativity play, performing onstage in Nashville with music royalty (Osmond), and braving a massive snowstorm which just may lead them to making sweet music together.
The Road Home for Christmas is produced by Hybrid, LLC. Jeff Schenck serves as executive producer.

I hope Marla Sokoloff will come back to Hallmark Family. I hadn’t seen her since Simmer in the City with Marc Bendavid on Hallmark Channel
ReplyDeleteYes, Marla was great in that movie, Summer in the City, even though she wasn't the lead. Would love to see her on Hallmark again someday!
DeleteThis movie is STELLER! Fresh, heart felt and moving (I cried), fun, musical, and a sweet love story! Love both Marla and Rob (individually and together!)! The movie flowed very nicely, the characters developed and came together nicely, and they gave us a glimpse into the future ( I love when they do that). Marie Osmond has a beautiful voice. I wonder if it was really Marla and Rob singing? Anyone know? Definitely recommend. :)

Absolutely fantastic movie! I watch most of the movies toy discuss on your site. Most are really good. A lot, if I'm honest, I only really watch once. A select few, I'd watch every so often. Amongst them, one or two of happily watch the next day. This is one of those for me.
ReplyDeleteNo idea what element it is. If I did, I'd sell it in a bottle!
