A Lovely Story
This new Hallmark film presents two mature, intelligent people moving into a relationship that is both realistic and very beautifully portrayed. Kudos to Hallmark for the stunning location of this film. Banff National Park in Canada is a breathtaking area. The relationship between the lead actors was developed in a serious manner, with an ethical dilemma underlying their growing feelings for one another.Sadly, the largest mistake the producers made was to play the background music so loudly that a great deal of dialogue was inaudible. In the last 5 minutes of the film, when the two leads finally face the secrets and truths that have to be revealed, when they finally are able to reveal their deep feelings for one another, the music was so loud that all dialogue was obscured.
What a sad loss for such a lovely and serious film. and such an original story. Barely a word was audible. One assumes a Hallmark movie ends happily, with a long-awaited kiss, but this film had so many ethical dilemmas waiting to be revealed and resolved, it is a shame not one word of that resolution was available to the viewer and listener.
score 8/10
