Movie #3154 "A Biltmore Christmas" (Hallmark) This is the one I was looking forward to from the previews --- looked to be historic, and it was. The story deals with time traveling and magic, so it might not be to everyone's liking, but just the whole idea of filming on the estate is enough to get me watching. What a beautiful place, and costumes, and it had two of my favorite actors in it -- the story is a bit scattered but I liked the idea of tweaking the ending to make it less a feel good ending and more romantic showing a sacrifice on one lover's part for another -- like in 'Casablanca." Well, that puts emphasis on the ending, and it did come to an ending, but it seemed really way out there --- i.e., it ended but I'm not sure it was as successful as I wanted it to be. At least she ended up in the right time period. Was it believable? Well, I wanted it to be. I'd give this 4 out of 5 and recommend it.
