Le dernier cœur à prendre

This is my favorite June Weddings movie. In my previous reviews I use the word best, but they are specific to a certain criteria. This movie, is the best among June weddings movies, and it is great in general. Rachel Boston and Paul Campbell put on a great show. I also enjoy the music (opening scene).

Another great movie (in my all time top 10)

Nice script & great connection between Paul Campbell and Rachel Boston. This movie made my top ten hallmark (another one with Paul Campbell). Rachel did a great job. I loved it.

This lovely Hallmark movie follows the relationship of two people, each in a profession they know is not their dream job..and, yet, hesitant to take a leap of faith and pursue another path. The story unfolds as the young woman faces her parents' retirement, leaving a business to he that they have spent their lifetime building. Yet, she has other dreams. the young man in the film spends his life taking wedding photos when what he really would prefer to do is to film serious documentaries that would help an ethical cause. the relationship between the two leads develops, first from initial antagonism, then to a more supportive friendship, and eventually, to love. The leading lady, Rachel Boston, does well inner role but could use a suggestion t smile less, use a more rounded voice..(hers is consistent y tinny and flat) , and not giggle during brief silences in the dialogue.. Paul Campbell does better here than in previous roles..where he often lacks a range of facial expressions. He still has a way to go, but there is visible improvement.

This movie and already giving it all the stars. Becca has just arrived with a lot of luggage. I feel like Hallmark has heard viewers when we comment about characters having one suitcase to stay a week but has endless shoes and bulky coat options. I love that they have leaned into that.

I am a fan of Paul Campbell so I thought I'd give this a re-watch, even though I didn't remember being overly impressed. Paul was fine. Rachel, Rachel, Rachel. I used to like her all right. She used to be one of the go-to Hallmark actresses. The more I have seen her in recent years, the less I like her. She has a real stagey acting style. She says her lines like she knows there is an audience watching her. No matter what role she plays, beneath the smiles and niceness, she kind of comes across like she knows she is kind of superior to everyone else. This is just the way she comes across to me. I know she has her fans, and that is fine.

I found her interaction with Paul Campbell came across as borderline hostile especially at the beginning. And it wasn't due to the story. Her eyes were so cold when she looked at him in a few scenes, I actually got a little freaked out. I wish I knew what was going on there, if anything.

The story wasn't all that bad, hence a respectable 7 stars from me. The script seemed well-written and had some cute and clever lines. I liked that she was playing her age not an almost 40 year old actress playing a young inexperienced girl just starting out in her career. The jewelry making subplot was interesting and added a lot to the usual love story. The message was a good one: Follow your dreams, do what you love, but stay sensible and grounded. The romance as scripted did not come out of nowhere, the relationship developed naturally and realistically.
