Christmas on My Mind

A fall on ice with Santa coming to the rescue of Lucy,(played by Ashley Greene) starts our story. A bump on the head and Lucy has amnesia. However, she does go straight to her ex-boyfriend Zac, played by Andrew Walker. He delivers on a character protecting a broken heart yet still out to get his girl.

The story has its ebb and flow without giving away the reason for the break up. This gives the story a plus to pull off the conclusion with a Hallmark happy Christmas ending.

Very enjoyable holiday movie.

I really like the actors especially Andrew Walker and the plot was a little better than most Hallmark movies. However, I've had it with the PHONY winters! Actors wear thin jackets that are usually open? They rarely wear hats and gloves and even in the snowman contest, they had bare hands. It's torture to manipulate snow this way. Also, if we look in the background, there are green forests of deciduous trees. Now I lived most of my life in the northeast and winters were COLD and BARE and WET! People who liked winter activities would smother themselves in puffy winter coats, wear warm hats, scarves, gloves and boots AND would rush indoors as soon as their activities ended.I

Now I live in Arizona and even though we have mild weather, people still celebrate the holidays. So, if Hallmark can't film in winter then why not allow their Christmas stories to take place in a warm climate. It could be Arizona or Southern California or Hawaii or even a vacation type place like the Bahamas.

Ashley Greene of Twiglight looks beautiful in this Christmas movie. Why isn't she on TV more? She is paired with Hallmark regular Andrew Walker. A woman falls and loses her memory for the last 2 years thinking she is still engaged to her previous boyfriend. It's fairly intriguing to see how she gets back her memory. How is she going to choose between her ex and her new fiancé? This movie looks a bit better than the average Hallmark movie.

Love the acting. Can't wait to see Ashley in more movies!! Love the leading man in all the movies he's in. Cute friends and great imagery.

The good thing about film - it respects the recipe of genre. Maybe too faithful. Andrew W. Walker saves good part of story, Ashley Greene is sweets but She can not help her character, the characters itselves are reduced at sketches level and the film seems be only a gray project, without real ambitions of authetic story. But, sure, nice try. And reasonable imitation of romance story. A Christmas stories with delicate veil of amnesia, old love, new fiancee and an art gallery. And , in essence, it is just enough.
