Movie #1823 ........................."Homecoming for the Holidays"

Movie #1823 "Homecoming for the Holidays" --- wanted to check in on this one because  Laura Osnes was in it --- a broadway star (two time nominated best actress in a musical-- most recently for "Cinderella") who is a singer/dancer puts her talent to good use here --- she plays a famous country western star who comes back to home town for xmas, but she of course has a deadline on her next album --- the cool thing about the movie, besides her, is that her brother is a shoulder and so is the guy she falls in love with --- and they all work on building houses for vets, etc.  There's a guy who is going through PtSD and gets a comfort dog to help him through it ---- we rarely as a society talk about these things so to watch them up close and personal (well, as personal as you can get in a film) was really a nice bonus here.  She is quite a pollyanna in this film and that can get tiring, and he is nice but so hesitant most of the time (one0note) and the conflict is the career one again --- HE is too focused on it , surprisingly, since she's the one that you'd think had more restrictions --- but anyway, I'd give it a 3.8 --- her energy is infections and keeps the interest up in this one.

Country singer Charlotte (Laura Osnes) is home for the holidays and brother Ryan's fellow ex-soldier Matt (Stephen Huszar) is in town. Writing her new album, Charlotte works with Matt to build a house for a friend in town.
