Candace is delightful in this holiday romance.
Kansas City Publicist Darcy, played by the gorgeous and love-able Candace Cameron Bure, is getting a chance to work with a grouchy VP for some much needed good PR.“I feel so defeated and small.”-Darcy
After loosing a publicity award…Darcy decides to put her talents to good use on a charity, Emerald Education Trust.
Darcy loves Christmas and she has a big boisterous family who loves her. She has two good natured brothers, including one who is a teacher along with his wife. They tell her about Emerald Education Trust when she is looking to do some pro-bono work.
“When you have a gift, you don’t hide it under a bushel. You shine it where it can do the most good.”-Darcy.
Darcy flies in early to meet with the “No” man for Austin, inc. Hoping to change his mind about giving her a chance. Not knowing what he looks like she meets him in the hotel bar and tells him all about himself…referring to him as a bit of a curmudgeon.
“Glen Goodman, vp of communications of Austin, Inc. Local curmudgeon.”-Glen
Candace Cameron Bure is as infectious as usual. I think I would watch anything that she is in…She is the best thing on Hallmark. And the humor in the writing was spot on.
“You’re just used to charming everyone immediately, that’s all.”-Emma.
Romantic and lovable, filled with holiday cheer and goodwill.
Surprising
Why are there so many bottom rating reviews for this movie on this site where the reviewer only has one review? Check their history. Most of them say little that is descriptive in their review beyond “boring” or the equivalent. I’m not the only person that says that outlier reviews by single time reviewers often means an ulterior motive or conflict of interest.I have never been a huge fan of Candace (CCB). She frequently plays annoying, pushy characters, at least at the start of a movie. I liked her in this movie. Still a little pushy. But I felt like I was seeing deeper into the character, Dorthy, I mean Darcy. She and Warren Christie had that chemistry where comebacks were well timed and not mean. There were plenty of digs back and forth, but they were more like private jokes or personal code. Much of their dialogue was fun.
The movie started out as one of the usual plots where the consultant comes in to rescue some aspect of a business, but other than the usual devices of Santa and a gala and a couple others, the story was really something else. Those devices were well used vehicles to deliver all the things I mentioned earlier. Of course the outcome is predictable. I would think many people saw the twist coming which makes the conflict and climax predictable as well. I don’t know what keyed me, but I saw the twist almost immediately.
This movie had so many allusions to Wizard of Oz, that I would be surprised if anyone missed it. There were characters representing the Scarecrow, Tin(wo)man, and Lion. The role of the Witch wasn’t exactly a match but obvious. The Man behind the curtain was obvious but not presented in quite the same way as Oz. Many lines were direct quotes. And most of the lines and comparisons and allusions were clever. The supporting actors filling those roles did a good job and it was a pleasure to watch them. I love a underdog or coming of age story and at least 5 characters did that to one extent or another. I especially enjoyed Jordana Largy, but I’ve always been a nerd.
This movie wasn’t boring if you were watching for the little things. Quite the opposite.
Because there are so many horrible reviews, I want to cut off anyone who will point to mine as having an ulterior motive. I have over 1400 ratings on this site (as of end of 2020) and nearly 800 reviews of movies and TV shows. Many, possibly most, are either Christmas movies or Rom/Coms. Yes, I tend to favor Hallmark partly because I’ve watched so many, but also because they fit my preferences more often, but not nearly exclusively.
