Love Comes Softly

I just got the DVD and watched the whole thing last night and loved it!!!!! Never got to see the movie when it aired on TV but I figured since Dale Midkiff was in it, it had to be good:) I was right! Katherine Heigl is very underrated as an actress. Loved her in Wish upon a Star(cute movie), and remember her from That Night and the show Roswell, but I hope to see more of her!! She was really good in this movie. I am so glad there is going to be a sequel! because the movie left me wanting to see more. I was disappointed to see the movie ended because it was so beautiful. A good family movie that you don't have to worry about sex, drugs, violence, vulgar language.........

This is a wonderful movie about loss, love and faith. It has become my absolute favorite movie...for now at least. The little girl Missie is such a doll and perfect for her role.

The movie has a bit of "Little House on the Prairie" feel to it but has a lot of it's own appeal. All of my friends love this sweet movie, too. Just shows Hollywood that not all of us are into the s_x, blood and gore of most movies out there. Most of us adore the more faith-based, clean, wholesome movies.

My favorite part that makes me cry every time is when Marty is swinging on the homemade rope swing and is crying and crying over the loss of her husband...awe, just too sweet. And then when Marty walks in on Missy crying over her mothers death and confronts Marty, oh, my heart just breaks.

This is a movie that the whole family can watch together.

I needed the help of a friend to be able to see these movie, but as I heard it airs I couldn't wait until it would air in Germany. Unfortunately it can take years until movies are shown in Germany. These movie is one of these movies I could watch daily. It's wonderful and convincing played - just excellent! Reminds at the Little house in the Prairie . The story is heart warming, the pictures great and Dale Midkiff, Kathrine Heigl and Skye McCole Bartusiak do a terrific job. This movie brings up the wish, there should be more Clark Davis' in these world (thanks to a terrific Dale Midkiff). I wish there would be more movies like this on TV, I enjoyed every second!

Good job Michael Landon Jr.-your dad would be proud. It appears that you are following the legacy of your father, in producing and directing good television entertainment that can be shared by the whole family. This movie reached all kinds of emotions in me to the point that I actually felt I was a part of the movie. All the actors did excellent work in portraying their characters and their personalities. I suppose the biggest surprise to me was that the roll of Clark Davis being portrayed by Dale Midkiff of "Elvis and Me." If showed me that if the actor is really talented, he (or she) can do justice to any role, even the most unlikely or unexpected. But it is important to say that it is because each of the actors did an excellent job in portraying their characters, that this movie was so believable and memorable. The movie is of the caliber that we expect of the Hallmark Hall of Fame movies, even though it wasn't. I hope we can count on many more movies of this caliber because there is an audience for it....and I too, would like to see a sequel to this movie, "Love Comes Softly."

I watched this movie for several reasons: Michael Landon,Jr.'s involvement (as I suspected, he learned well from his father); I love Westerns (and romances); and I'm a fan of Dale Midkiff's and consider him talented and hugely underrated. I love to examine an actor's portrayal of a role. The way Midkiff used his voice(tone and inflection) to display Clark Davis' kindness, gentleness, and honor was perfection. Talk about nailing a role! (He's just as believable as the rascally womanizer,Buck, on "The Magnificent Seven.") I hope to see a sequel (or several) to this appealing movie.
