Movie #1836 ........................."Christmas Parade"

Movie #1836 " The Christmas Parade" - I liked the story and the main guy, and the townspeople (esp. the kids) were effective. But the lead girl  was one of those "Mean Girls" you knew in high school......fakey to your face, but mean behind your back, who dated all the good looking guys and made fun of YOUR friends who weren't "In" --- she just had that look, that style about her and her clothes.  Even when she was supposedly falling in love with the nicest guy in this town, she acted like she was "Putting on" in being nice.  So I had problems with the story.  I'd give it 3.5 out of 5.









" THE CHRISTMAS  PARADE"    2014           1 hour and 30 mins
Hailee Anderson (AnnaLynne McCord), the famous talk show host, is preparing for the holiday season by working; she's planning her very important TV show, her Christmas special. Already a scrooge, Hailee is even more miserable when she finds out her real-estate fiancée Jason (Drew Scott) is cheating on her - on air. To clear her head, she goes on a drive and ends up in Carver Bend, Connecticut, unfortunately crashing through a local judge's fence. Forced to do community service, she helps out her rescuer Logan (Jefferson Brown), by building a float for the town's annual Christmas parade to help save the town's art center. While Hailee bonds with the locals, the art center kids, and grows closer to Logan, she re-learns why the holidays are important to spend with those you love.
