Movie #1986........................."Winter Love Story" (Hallmark )

 Movie #1986 "Winter Love Story" (Hallmark)  Okay, I'm a sucker for movies about writers -- I have to admit that!  And when I saw this was about two waters, well I was thee!  The girl took a long time to get used to, but she is meant to be a Carrie Bradshaw type writer (dating life based on her own experiences).  He was easy to identify right away -- as a good looking heart throb who writes a dragon series that all the woman pretend  to like and swoon over.  However, there is much more to him and her.  Her mom is a famous writer, and after living all her life so far in her shadow, she finds work to be about the same?  And he doesn't think he has the third book in him and he's crushed from a divorce 1 year behind.  They are forced to be travel buddies (you're kidding?) and they find they can help each other (so it isn't all lust in these hallmark films?)  I DO like that they start with the premise of liking each other's minds and creative imaginations!!!! That's actually why I like Hallmark films --- they aren't in bed right from the start --- in fact, following the evident  Hallmark mandate  of 2019, the first kiss doesn't happen until the last couple of minutes of the film.  I liked it, just not the girl too much --- but she grew on me (evidently on him, too!)  I'd give it 4.5.

"Winter Love Story"    1 hour, 24 mins          2019         I'd give it 4.5

Cassie has just published her first book, a romcom on her divorce experience. To help a new writer along, the publisher pairs her with the established "dragon writer" Elliot on a week long book tour. Will they remain singles?

Director:

 T.W. Peacocke (as TW Peacocke)
