But their magical day ends when Olivia learns Edward’s client is buying the dance studio. Luckily, Edward finds a storefront perfect for Olivia to start her own studio and secretly helps her get a loan. Thinking she secured it herself, Olivia sees Edward hugging the loan officer and declares he must believe in her for their relationship to work. It might take some Christmas magic and fate to bring these two back together.

ReplyDeleteAwwwwwwwww...I looked to the left and what did I see??? A picture of "Sweet Mountain Christmas" and my "Happy" level peaked "10" only to plummet when I discovered I could not buy the dvd!! Awww, bummer, Net! I really loved this movie and hope the dvd will be released this year. P.S. Love Cameron and praying for his health..hope his movie is a hit!

ReplyDeleteElizabeth Mitchell’s first Christmas Movie since Hallmark Hall of Fame: Snow Queen
ReplyDeleteLoved it! Top five! The lead actors were so natural and believable (and how can you not love Cameron Mathison with the perfect timing and the twinkle in his eye?!).

Yes, Jane, it's a top 5 Christmas 2019 movie for me too. What can I say about Elizabeth Mitchell? She was radiant, beautiful, soulful, perfect. Her gorgeous blue eyes alone tell heartfelt stories just by looking into them. Her acting ability is waaaayyyyyy above most other actors, on any network. And she is almost 50 years old!!! She looks far younger. That gives me hope. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, Amy, I'm so glad you liked it, as well. I enjoy all the young actors and actresses on Hallmark, but I really tend to appreciate (and usually enjoy more!) the mature actors and actresses who know how to add all the subtle little things that enhance the presentation. And as a 50 year old myself (ugh!), I really, really, really appreciate actresses like Elizabeth Mitchell. Wish I could look that good and be so sparkly!! I'm told that I look young for my age, but I don't FEEL so young or radiant! ;)
