"My Dreams of You" sees the protagonist Grace McMahon dreaming about an unknown man, Michael, and falling for him in their dreams. The only problem is that he, a real musician called Michael Roy, has no idea who she is. Clearly someone in Dreamland must have screwed up a bit...Fortunately destiny always fixes itself if not interfered with.
I really enjoyed this Hallmark movie, the perfect mix of romance, fantasy and everyday life struggles. Especially in this age of anxiety and loss of innocence & love, a bit of romance and dreamy fantasies is nothing but welcomed. The dream factory and its workers are also nice addings. It also has a positive message, something that more "mainstream" movies don't have anymore, so it's great.
The cast is well assembled, the main protagonists are amazing and they're able to actually talk to their audience with their performances and thus are believable in their struggles between a gray life and colorful dreams. So, after the new Aurora Teagarden series, Skyler Samuels really nails another amazing film for Hallmark.
This is definitely the type of healthy filmmaking that we need, not those big bloated production from Tinseltown. It means the movement it's still alive and kickin'.
And finally it's worth mentioning the deep relation highlighted here between dreams and everyday life: they can influence our destiny and make us also change they lifes of other people around us. So it's better not to mess around with fate and let it follow its course!
