This movie is about second chances.

Margot is a well known pianist who is going through a rough patch, musically. She reunites with her family for the holidays. Jackson plays the cello, and they used to date. He is offered the position to direct the Christmas concert at the place where they are staying, the "Chateau", so they both come together to create something beautiful.

I like Merritt as a lead although she is not a favorite of mine. Luke, on the other hand, is becoming one of my favorites. I think they had good chemistry but not necessarily a romantic one, in my opinion. (I felt that she wasn't that into him). But I will accept all the Luke Macfarlane movies Hallmark gives us.

I know nothing about instruments, I don't know if any of the actors were actually playing them but they had me fooled.

I don't have any major complaints about this. It was such an "elegant" movie, if that means anything to you. There was not fooling around, not funny montage,, which made it kind of slow at times. . The final scene had me smiling from ear to ear. I know it's only the second movie of the Christmas season (lol, it's not even Halloween yet) but it was a good one. Nothing spectacular, but if you enjoy these, i'd recommend it.

"A second chance doesn't come along very often and when it does, you gotta grab it"

I'm confused about what to rate it, either 7 or 8. I will consult with the pillow. May change it later.

score 7/10
