Blind Date Book Club

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.

8.0 stars.

Been some days since a Hallmark movie was a pleasurable experience for me. Krakow usually makes for a decent film, and this was no exception.

How does this movie utilize the usual bag of tricks for soft romance? Actually, it doesn't fully. What I witnessed was something a bit off the beaten path. Sure it contains the usual ingredients, but there is a distinct feeling evoked watching the main characters interact. The romance seems forced, yet more authentic than most. It's as if the two leads are actually playing their parts with as much passion as possible, but doing their best to hold back. It's hard to explain, but I was actually impressed by their portrayal of two conflicted people.

He is a bit of an adventurer, but lackadaisical in his pursuit to take a detour with his writing career. In doing so, he produces something way below his standards, but seems oblivious about the ramifications this may have on his career. She, on the other hand, is the perfect female for his situation and with this particular dilemma. She has a passion for books, although it's not her primary goal to own a bookstore, and she would rather be doing real estate. But we can see that her true passion is him, she just doesn't realize it. He knows immediately that she is his match, and he formulates a plan to casually charm her.

I feel like the theme is that sometimes fate knocks us on the head to course correct our lives back to the status quo. They both belong right where they've been for a long time, yet both feel out of place. They simply needed to meet each other.

This film is not a masterpiece, but as I'm writing this review, I realize the writer had something memorable in mind, and I caught it (even though I may have overanalyzed a bit).

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.

Meg and Graham have a great chemistry.

Very interesting concept a " blind date, book club."

Purchase a book without knowing what the book is, and then show up in person at a later date to discuss your perceptions of the book.

In addition, participate in some theme of the book. For instance, a book concerning wine tasting would include wine tasting during the discussion, or a book concerning Flower arranging, would include Flower arranging during the discussion of the book.

The owner of the bookstore, the aunt of the main character, needs to liquidate her ownership of the bookstore. This puts the leading character in a quandary. Does she purchase her aunts bookstore, or does she go back to selling real estate?

The parallel plot is the male lead who has successfully written seven young adult books, and must produce an eighth on a specific timeline, but wants to write in a different genre. His new product is under a pseudonym, and is not being well accepted.

Very cute dialogue great acting good directing great writing..

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.
