Movie #3339 ........................."Christmas by Starlight" (Hallmark)

 Movie #3339 "Christmas by Starlight" (Hallmark)   I am rewatching this one for the umpteenth time and I went to check what I gave it the first time and discovered that there isn't a critique on this one, a favorite.  Why?  It's the first foray into screenwriting for Hallmark with these two leads -- Kim Sustad and Paul Campbell, 2 gavotte hallmark actors for me.  He plays a "flake" kind of business guy who according to his dad, needs help in organization and "caring" about the business before he takes it over --- Kim is the lawyer who is hired to see him do that --- but she comes along with an agenda.  She's business in trying to save her family business --- the Starlight Diner.  She becomes a big quirkier  and he  becomes more caring and organized --- they rub off each other in a good way, and thus you have a good sound story, with lots of funny moments, and it exudes charm in a real way.  I give it a 5, one of my favorite.
