Movie Review:


This movie info was shared by Kellie:

"Net, I started watching Forever My Girl thru Amazon Prime and ended up turning it off. It shows a musician having a one night stand with a concert attendee at the very beginning and I realized this wasn't one I was willing to watch."

My response:

"Kellie, Thank you so much for sharing!

Oh my, I had no idea they would show that. I knew there was a situation in the past, but I didn't know how graphic it would be shown. I typically don't miss a movie, but I personally decided to skip this story, as well, simply based on reviews. I'm so glad I added the mature audience warning above, but even though I am an adult, this is not something I would choose to watch either or endorse.

Thank you for sharing your profound moral conviction on this film. I truly value your opinion and appreciate this. God Bless You!"

I will have to recommend skipping this one.

The Cat's Out of the Bag... Changes to Hallmark's *Christmas in July* Movie Schedule + Christmas this Week!


Credit: ©2018 Crown Media United States LLC/Photographer: Brian Douglas

I can hardly believe "Christmas in July" begins next week on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries on Monday, June 29th! I'm so ready - I can almost hear those jingle bells ringing!

Today, I just wanted to give you all a heads up - that a few Christmas movies have been switched around or added to the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries and Hallmark Channel schedule, including: Christmas Everlasting, A Christmas Duet, Reunited at Christmas, A Gingerbread Romance, Holiday Date, Christmas in Evergreen: Tidings of Joy and more...


Check the Christmas Movie Schedule *HERE* to see when your favorites are airing!

In the meantime, I know there are plans in-the-works for filming Christmas movies with many of our favorite Hallmark stars, including Candace Cameron Bure, who will be filming hers soon, after they finish the "Aurora Teagarden" Mystery movie they were filming before the virus. Candace shared this bit of exciting news on Instagram, but that's all she could share - for now!

As we await "Christmas in July" next week, we still have three wonderful Christmas movies to watch this week...


๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ


Hallmark Drama's
"Home for the Holidays"
Wednesday Theater
classic Christmas movie feature is...
"The Christmas Pageant"
on Wednesday, June 24th at 9pm/8c..

Credit: Hallmark Crown Media

Storyline via Hallmark: When Vera Parks (Gilbert), an overly intense and demanding Broadway director gets fired from yet another job, leaving her no choice but to take a gig directing a small town Christmas pageant in upstate New York. Stunned at how basic the production is, Vera attempts to back out, but is convinced by some of the locals to give their town a chance. To her surprise, the warmth and charm of the small town grows on Vera and she even enjoys the experience of directing the pageant.

When Vera discovers her former fiancรฉ Jack (Mailhouse) recommended her for the job, she is outraged. But over time Vera appreciates the gesture, as she grows close to both Jack and his young daughter (Wynn).

To her surprise, Vera learns a lot about herself and comes to enjoy the experience of directing the pageant. After rekindling an old flame and directing a fantastic production, Vera discovers life's unexpected turns can lead to wonderful new beginnings.

Will love stay in the wings this time around? Or is this Vera's eleven o'clock number after all?



๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ



Hallmark Movies & Mysteries
"Miracles of Christmas"
Thursday Theater
classic Christmas movie feature is
"A Homecoming for the Holidays"
on Thursday, June 25th at 9pm/8c.

Credit: ©2019 Crown Media United States

Storyline via Hallmark: When singer/songwriter Charlotte meets Matt she’s entertaining the troops, and he’s starting his third tour. Charlotte’s brother Eric is deploying too, and she’s off to ignite her career. Fast forward three years and three albums later, and Charlotte is home for Christmas, Eric announces plans to reenlist, and Matt, turned civilian, is working for Operation Homefront. Everyone enjoys being together, especially Matt and Charlotte, whose romance is aflame. But when she’s asked on a Christmas Special in Nashville on the 23rd, she’s torn. Hopefully Matt and Charlotte’s love can survive, especially when a photo of Charlotte and her ex surfaces.



๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ



Hallmark Channel's
"Countdown to Christmas"
Friday Theater
classic Christmas movie feature is
"A Royal Christmas"
on Friday, June 26th at 8pm/7c.


Storyline via Hallmark: A Royal Christmas centers on a young girl who, after accepting her boyfriend’s proposal, learns he is a prince. She must then gain the acceptance of his mother, who looks down on her humble origins.

As the only daughter of an expert tailor in Philadelphia, Emily Corrigan (Chabert) is a kindhearted young woman proud of her blue-collar background. She is a devoted seamstress at the family business and madly in love with her doting European boyfriend, Leo (Stephen Hagan). But as their first Christmas together approaches, Leo drops a bombshell on his unsuspecting girlfriend: he is actually Prince Leopold, heir to the throne of Cordinia, a small sovereign country. Emily is in shock, but her love for Leo trumps her hesitation about his double life and they quickly fly to Cordinia to announce their engagement and spend the holidays with Leo’s disapproving mother, Queen Isadora (Seymour).

Less than enthusiastic about her son’s relationship with a commoner, Isadora makes Emily feel anything but welcome at their grand castle, leaving Emily to feel more at home among Isadora’s staff of butlers and housemaids. As Emily struggles to adapt to her new royal surroundings, the situation is made more difficult when a scheming Isadora invites Duchess Natasha (Flynn), Leo’s ex-girlfriend, to join them for Christmas. Emily sees that Natasha is a perfect match for Leo and worries she’ll never measure up to Isadora’s standards. Attempting to stay true to herself in a world where she clearly doesn’t belong, Emily wonders if love is enough to keep her newly royal relationship from falling apart before Christmas morning.



๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ


I hope you enjoy all three Christmas movies - airing on all three Hallmark networks!

My Christmas Movie Pick of the Week:

ALL THREE!

I love the Nativity Play in "The Christmas Pageant" and the singing of Ave Maria. Absolutely beautiful!

As we look forward to the 4th of July, this is the perfect time to watch "A Homecoming for the Holidays," since it is such a wonderful patriotic film. Laura Osnes' lovely voice is amazing throughout the movie... I always love to hear her sing!

(By the way, I added a video clip of Laura Osnes singing "Oh, Come, All Ye Faithful" with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir - below! Scroll down to watch!)



I will be *Marking the 25th* day of the month by watching "A Homecoming for the Holidays!" Will you be watching this, too, or something else Christmassy to "Mark the Day?"

((Do you want to "Mark the 25th" with us, too? You can also join along! Here at "It's a Wonderful Movie" we highlight every 25th day of the month - TOGETHER! - as we countdown to Christmas! For all of you Christmas movie fans who wish to participate, simply pick something Christmassy to watch on the 25th! It can be a Christmas movie, cartoon, family sitcom or anything you like. (There's only one stipulation - it must be family friendly.) Then, please share in comments below your Christmas choice for the day!))

The last Hallmark Christmas movie of this week, is Lacey Chabert in "A Royal Christmas!" Lacey is definitely the Princess of Hallmark movies! What a delight her sweet spirit is in this one! I love watching her city girl character take on the challenge of life in a palace with royalty. The fairytale happy ending is perfection!

Do YOU have a special TOP Christmas Movie Pick of the week or fun Christmas choice to *Mark the 25th*? If so, please share in comments below...


Joyous Blessings to You All, Net

I hope you all have a nice, pleasant weekend. I'll be spending some time with my family and my precious Daddy on Father's Day. I'm so grateful for all of the wonderful Fathers in my family. Both of my Grandfather's are gone; however, their sweet memories remain with us.

Over the weekend, we're expecting a mix of sunshine and rain here in the Midwest. Oh, how I pray we get some much needed rain. We haven't had any for quite some time and the grass and flowers are beginning to show it, along with our farm crops that could use some rain to help them grow during this crucial early growing stage. However, if it doesn't rain... on a brighter note, we might get in a few rounds of corn hole!

As for what's on TV... in addition to the great Marathons, I'm really looking forward to all of the new movies this weekend... The Warrant, Love Under the Olive Tree, and Mechanics of Love! Hope you enjoy them all, too!

(*Side Note: The premiere date for the next new movie, "Midway to Love," has been moved up to Friday, June 26th. Not sure why, but I'll have a reminder later this week!)

May you all have a wonderful
First Official Weekend of Summer!

Happy Father's Day
to All of the Daddy's who visit here!

Blessings, Everyone! Net
