Following "Christmas in Rome," is...
starring Lacey Chabert and Warren Christie
Please Note: This movie is heartbreaking and touching as it shows the death of two spouses and parents to young children. There is also a story of hope as they rediscover love again. This is not a Christmas movie, but there is a beautiful scene at the end that takes place at Christmastime with the children performing in a Church Nativity Pageant.

The last Christmas movie airing this week is "Crashing Through the Snow" on the Hallmark Channel. I know there were a lot of mixed feelings on this movie. It had some cute moments and fun banter, some loved it, others did not. My personal feeling is: marriage is a serious lifetime commitment, but I didn’t feel it was taken seriously, at all, in this movie.

Blessings on your week! Net

I couldn't not believe my eyes, but somehow they are playing SSD Christmas on Thurs Oct 14th. It might be the Christmas Thursday movie. I am so excited. I am going to record it so i can watch it and not have to watch on HMNow.
ReplyDeleteAll the POstables should tweet or all watch it so people at HM can see the SSD movies and SSD Christmas have a big following.

Sabrina - I just checked! I could hardly believe it, either, but it's there! Yaaaaaaay! They just added that today because it wasn't listed yesterday. What a great way to promo the new movie - by playing this. Hope this means they will repeat it during the Christmas season too!
DeleteAlso, they will be playing "Welcome to Christmas" (starring Eric Mabius) before this at 5pm/4c.! POstables will be soooo happy!!! :)
The Color Of Rain was quite a ground-breaking movie for Hallmark at the time.
ReplyDeleteIt was an excellent drama and overall it I enjoyed it although to be honest I thought the romance element was a little low key and could have more well-defined.
I could imagine that at the time Hallmark might have been a little nervous about the content of this - Florence
Florence, That is so true. I'm surprised they didn't make this movie a Hallmark Hall of Fame because it definitely has that quality to it. Since it's based on a true story, that also added a unique, authentic feel to the movie.
DeleteI love The Color of Rain.

I think that The Color of Rain is one of my favorite Lacey Chabert movies.
ReplyDeleteI love The Color of Rain and always try to catch it when it is home. As heartbreaking as it is, it is a wonderful story, and it is true! I believe this is Lacey Chabert's best work.
ReplyDeleteSavvy Girl, I know just what you mean... it is bittersweet, but beautiful, too!
DeleteHave you ever seen a bad Lacey Chabert movie on either on Hallmark Movies and Mysteries or Hallmark Channel?
ReplyDeleteChris, Interesting question. I definitely enjoy some of Lacey's movies more than others, but I wouldn't say any of her Hallmark movies are bad. The lighthearted ones, like All of My Heart, Christmas Waltz, and Love, Romance, and Chocolate are some of my favorites of hers.
DeleteThe two that I thought were terrible is the movies that I can't think of.What is the name of the movies where Lacey Chabert plays Hannah and she was a reporter and then she was hallucinating aand she was raising a family and she doesn't know how?
DeleteObviously we all have our favourites but I don't think there were any of Lacey's Movies which I haven't enjoyed to some extent - Florence
DeleteI can name several of Lacey's more recent movies that were not good at all to me.
DeleteChristmas in Rome was not good. Many of the rome scenes were green screened, and most of it was set on back roads. I didnt really feel Lacey and Sam together.
I am not at all a fan of My secret Valentine. I havent watched Christmas Waltz or the Time for us to come home yet, mostly cause they just didnt look good. I used to want to watch anything with Lacey, but not so much anymore.
Pride Prejudice and Mistletoe was awful, mostly cause i am over the stories like that. Hallmark has done way too many of them.
The Christmas Melody was terrible too, mostly cause the child actress was not good at all, and they made Brennan Elliot out to be almost a stalker.
Movies i loved:
Love chocolate and Romance, although was a little bad in spots, i think i loved it cause of Will Kemp. Love AOMH, I even like the Safari one although it is not the greatest. Love Sweetest Christmas, MM Santa, I LOVE Family for Christmas, A Royal Christmas, Color of Rain, Moonlight in Vermont.
I heard Lacey is doing another castle type movie, I dont know.....

A Christmas Melody is the worst because of Mariah Carey. She's lucky Lacey and Brennan agreed to do her movie because that's the only thing that saved it. I like most of Lacey's other movies. Time for Us to Come Home for Christmas is great and Christmas Waltz is excellent.
DeleteYep, Anonymous, I agree with you completely! Too many singers try their hand at acting and do not succeed. Mariah Carey, for me, falls into that group. (I can think of one or two other singers that have done Hallmark movies that cannot act.) This is the only Lacey movie that I refuse to re-watch, and it is because of Mariah. Fortunately, there are so many others to choose from.
DeleteChristmas Melody is worst movie
DeleteI dont think Mariah Carey actually acted next to Lacey and Brennan, I think she did her scenes alone and they put them in the movie. I always wondered why the lighting and everything looked different when Mariah was on. Like she got a special spotlight on her. But i think its cause she taped them separately, without anyone there to play against her. She was way over the top. But the little actress, she got so many lines and to sing the song at the end, but to me, she just needed way less lines.
