To All a Good Night

I have seen a ton of Hallmark movies. To me this is one of the if not the best ever. The writing is brilliant, on spot, funny and emotional. So is the acting. Excellent. It's upbeat with positivity. Cinematography is also fantastic. No plot spoilers here. It's somewhat different from the standard Hallmark predictable formula. If you want an enjoyable good time with a movie I totally recommend this one. Even the dog is great. So are the lead stars as well as the rest of the cast. This movie has a refreshingly different feel to it. It's well produced, directed, acted, and photographed. Hope you enjoy it as mych as I did.

This Hallmark holiday film was a little different than the usual formula. It had an unconventional male lead, who was mysterious, supportive, funny and giving. It had an adorable dog who was the thief of Harmony Bay, which worked into an ongoing gag. It had a female lead who was grieving the loss of her father, but open to healing and help.

It still had the loving, small town community and it had a gorgeous backdrop that looked exactly like my backyard growing up (it came as no surprise that it was film on Victoria Island...which you literally can look across the Salish Sea and see from my Fidalgo Island backyard).

Great supporting cast and a demonic bongo Santa. The dialog was wonderfully written...jokes, romantic stories, military support, and the concept of sharing something beautiful with the community that you love.

Ceci and Sam are a match made in heaven. Their meeting over a motorcycle accident and her first aid and conversation...and his proposal were great.

This is one for the romantics. The story was funny and romantic. I highly recommend it to romantics like me. Kimberley Sustad (Ceci) and newcomer Mark Ghanimé (Sam) had wonderful chemistry. I liked the multiple stories within this storyline and I really appreciated that they didn't make Vivian a villain.

Kimberly and her partner are very good together Though I never understand why most hallmark male actors never shave. He's a good actor but please take a shave. The story is original and the scenery was beautiful Here again Hallmark spared no expense with the location and the supporting cast. I felt this was a real town and community The people seemed so real and oh the dog was a great addition. Here again a good old fasho mystery with a rom com to boot. The ending was def a surprise and plausible I liked the way it all came together Would like to see more of these mysteries and a simple plot. I do not like the mysteries that have so many twists and turns that never makes sense All in all a good job.

Ceci Carmichael (Kimberley Sustad) is a photographer for her small town newspaper. She recently lost her father and cancels a local Christmas tradition called Good Night. She comes to the aid of motorcyclist Sam Calloway (Mark Ghanimé) who crashes in the woods. Right before passing out, he asks her to marry him.

I really like the elephant necklace premise. I like a lot of that back and forth and its eventual resolution. I don't really like that he keeps his land development idea a secret. He could simply tell her that he's not buying her land and she would not believe him. That's a lot cuter and reasonable. I would like for her to read the letter. It would jumble the ending around a little, but I think it improve it. This is a movie filled with only nice people and that's a nice fit for Christmas.

This is one of the best Hallmark holiday romances. All of the characters are very likable, and the story is well written.

Kimberley Sustad plays the part of Ceci, a photographer who recently lost her father. When a mysterious motorcyclist crashes near her family's property, she goes to his rescue. Mark Ghanime plays Sam, the motorcyclist who ends up in the hospital, wondering who his anonymous benefactor was. As it turns out, this is a story with plenty of mysteries.

Ceci has a ready wit. She spends time with Sam as he recuperates, and they exchange stories about their lives. He finds himself becoming more involved in the community, which helps him overcome some emotional issues. In the end, this film becomes a tearjerker in the best possible way, a life-affirming way. However, there is plenty of humor along the way, and some colorful characters (including a dog) keep things light.
