Noël en escarpins

The usual Lifetime Christmas movie (bad script, bad acting) with an unknown Canadian actress Erin Karpluk, an annoying actress who talks too fast. Christmas shoes, really? And her window displays for the Candy store were awful. I wish Lifetime and Hallmark would stop making these awful movies.

Like many Christmas films, just nice. The axis - a seductive idea about shoes and about choices. Romance, options, friendship and decent performances. Nothing original or spectacular but smart manner to use pieces of the genre for a not so bad film about signs, grandmother, mistakes and the fair to yourself way.

What gets me & know a movie, why wearing open toe shoes & no stocking? It's winter snow on ground. I thought was getting little girl skates.

When does she sleep, decorate all night, thn goes to work, which is like right next door. They're neighbors but never seem run into each other outside house.

These reviews really kill me with having to be 600 characters. There really isn't that much to say. I just wanted to leave a comment and keep it moving. Okay 142 still Okay, I'm from Boston, Patriots, and been living in Georgia for about 20 years, haven't been back except maybe twice, but will always be home to me. Will NOT claim GA.

My son's family just came home from two plus years in Belgium which still has a lot of Dutch tradition, so some of the things in this movie were familiar like candy in the shoes. The Dutch traditions gave this movie a slightly different flavor from so many of the Christmas romance movies around. The premise of the story was similar to those of many of these movies, but at the same time it felt a little different. Certainly, the relationship of the lead male, John, with his father and how that progressed through the story is a very well used trope. The themes of be-yourself, take-risks, and do-what-makes-you-happy are in many Christmas movies. While save-the-store is well used, this had a slightly different take on it. The meddling arrival of the hated ex is another well used trope.

John and Noelle clicked from the beginning. I find I like this kind of movie when the leads have plenty of screen time for relationship building and that was the case here and I did enjoy it.

The conflict involved a couple of other well used tropes, but I didn't see it coming, so I give points for that.

Loved this one. Good connection between couple. Held my attention. Nice story, a little different at last.
