Blind Date Book Club

I would like to know who the artist is and the name of the song that played for 2min and 22 seconds toward the end of the movie. I can't find it listed in the credits some of the words that are repeated offen are"on my mind" she has a nice voice would like to get a copy of it, Hallmark was no help , in fact they were rude at my request. I am guessing that questions might not be appropriate here but worth a try. It was a very good story line. The characters were well matched. I also liked the scenes and scenery. It was a beautiful believable story. Would like to see more like this produced by this production company.

Very rare I write , about a Hallmark film, Ilike it. But in this case , this confession just well works. Sure, difficult to be different reaction about a film with books, Erin Krakow and Robert Buckley, not ignoring Glanys Davies and Faith Wright.

But the reactions - debates in book club are the basic good point of film. Sure, not exactly surprises or revelations but for a tsundoku like me, few significant beautiful moments. And the art of Robert Buckley to offer coherence of his version of a kind of Clark Kent.

In short, for not be too enthusiastic, I consider it pretty nice Hallmark . Off course, the blind book package has its contribution to this.

Nantucket bookstore owner Meg (the charming Erin Krakow) is at a crossroads of sorts on whether to continue running the store, a dream of her deceased mother that has been financially supported by Meg's aunt, who is her mother's sister. Best-selling author Graham (the equally charming Robert Buckley) is also at a crossroads of sorts, yearning to stretch his talents as an author from the teen coming-of-age genre to the historical romance genre. He's, in fact, written such a romance novel under a pseudonym, but it got a lukewarm response from his agent, so he decides it's time to take a short break to regroup. Meg and Graham meet cute at the docks of Nantucket when a tourist mistakes them for a couple. Eventually, he finds his way to the bookstore and it's then that their journeys unfold separately and together.

What I like most about this movie is that it's just as much about the heroine's journey as it is about the hero's story and I found myself just as interested in their separate storylines as I was in their potential romance. The supporting cast is great and provides believable, tangible support; namely, Meg's friend and bookstore employee Alice, who has dreams of becoming an author herself; Graham's sister, who is his cheerleader just as much as he is hers; and Graham's agent, who is also his good friend. The two leads have naturally good chemistry with each other and everyone else. This one is interesting and worth the watch, in my opinion.

I was really wanting to like this movie, but I just couldn't concentrate. Erin Krakow is such a pretty girl, but her hair was just so disruptive. The short hair just doesn't work. I know nothing about women's hair, but her hair in this movie just bothered me through the entire movie. It just needed to be longer - even if just to the shoulders. Things were just out of balance. The fact that I was thinking about it through the entire movie tells me it was wrong. I just had to mention it because I hope this will be a consideration in future movies. This is just one guys opinion.

I think I am going to have to watch the movie again to try to focus on the actual story.

It's refreshing to see Erin Krakow in a Hallmark movie that isn't a period piece. She and Robert Buckley (of "One Tree Hill" and "Chesapeake Shores" fame) are both big Hallmark guns, and are both well cast in an original and well-written story (no tired tropes or cliches to be seen here!) set on Nantucket, but filmed - like most Hallmark movies - in British Columbia.

The chemistry between Krakow's Meg, a book store owner, and Buckley's Graham, a writer suffering from that terrible affliction of writer's block, is on point from their very first scene together. It's this chemistry that makes the movie so good.

I enjoyed this one. Hope we see more movies with Krakow and Buckley starring together.
