For the Love of Jessee

This movie is so refreshing. It's a story of real life issues: love, loss, relationships, and 2nd chances. The casting, I thought, was well done. Randy Wayne as Dr. Luke Matthews (you have to love the guy), Mandahla Rose as Sage Smith (the Dr's nanny & new love interest), & Adrienne Barbeau as Katharyn (Luke's mother). I enjoyed the development of each character and the transitions that occurred in their lives and relationships...Watch it, I think you will like it.

Good story. I watch a lot of hallmarks and this movie pulled at my heartstrings.

Loved the characters SO MUCH! Such a heartwarming movie!

I watched this when I needed a good weep. Death, disbelief, and ressurection of broken spirits who initially clash. The main characters are actually quite believable, which Surprised me. Real.

Best of all was the appearance of Adrienne Barbeau as Luke's mother. Her character was a wize grandma to the newborn, whose weathered features were perfect. I remember her from earlier days when she was a glamorous actress. On shows you can look up yourself. Her willingness to present herself thus reminds me of Sophia Loren: Brave and wonderful, with a touch of class.

I do hope more stories like this can be told. Christian romance, or princes from obscure European duchies are a little too common. This one felt real.

A watchable pleasant yarn about a young doctor and his family entanglements.
