Love, of Course

As often happens in Hallmark movies, if they cast the right lead(s) all else can be forgiven. The writing is fairly lame and the plot non-existent. What makes the move watchable is the lead actress who is really good at the chemistry/falling-in-love stuff. The lead actor (who is a Hallmark regular) does a decent job too. So if you want a good boy-meets-girl-in-middle-age movie you will probably enjoy this one.

I thought this movie was slightly better than average for hallmark, with mostly standard stuff.

Another comment was confused by spring break in Australia. Since seasons are based on the tilt of the earth, when it's tilted toward the sun we have summer, but at that time the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away, making it winter. As such, fall in the north is spring down under.

As a widow of a certain age, I loved this story ! Real - with real life considerations. And anything Cameron is in is great - he is so down to earth and genuine. Kelly is a wonderful actor and I love seeing her in this.

This is a movie without a lot of big highs or lows. It's pretty easy to figure out what comes next. That's when the actors take over and win your heart.

Kelly Rutherford and Cameron Mathison connect after a rough start during contrived confrontations for the obligatory early antagonism between the leads. (No driver lets her eyes wander when there are people all over both on and beside the road. And Noah walked out onto the road without any concern for cars. None. And there were other contrivances.) But after the early tension you could feel the attraction grow. You could also feel the chemistry between mother and daughter, Rutherford and Makenzie Vega. No villains in this story.

I wish IMDb gave credits to the waitress/singer in the band at the festival.

Cameron Mathison and Kelly Rutherford have so much chenistry. This movie had so much romance in it. I hope they make another movie together.
