Pagine d'amore

Great movie, great cast, great story.

It was outstanding, loved every minute of it.

Now that both parts are available at the same time, watch it again if you disliked part one. Maybe you will like it in it's ientirety.

My advice - watch it when you can get part 1 and part 2.

It is billed as a Christmas movie, but you could watch it all year long. Very heart-warming tale about how you can touch people's lives in positive ways without ever realizing it. It's also about learning to love someone enough to give them the freedom to be themselves. Very heart-warming, but not sappy. It's about community and coming together to help someone in need. You come away with lessons learned. I highly recommend this Part 1 and Part 2. James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 12/20/2020

I loved the movie! The characters were what I like to see in a movie , warm and helpful, (unlike the real world at times!) and caring. I loved the Bookstore/ café and thought it was a great idea. I've always loved bookstores and the idea of having both together to read and relax with two owners that are just as caring, to me, is a town I'd love to live in! The storyline and was what you expect from Hallmark, but that is why I watch them. The scenes were beautiful and I loved the idea of two people connecting so well! I was curious as to why certain parts of the film were lengthened. I can hardly wait for the next episode, I just wish it had an ending, not be continued to next year, hard to wait to see the ending of a movie I enjoyed so much!

7.8 stars.

In and of itself, 'The Bridge' is a dynamic film full of compassion for aimless book readers, and full of endearing characters and two in particular who wish to be together and follow their dreams. The main female's father is authoritarian and we see this on a few occasions. We don't like him, we aren't supposed to like him, he's the bad guy. The main male's mother is very likable, and we see even a bit less of her, she's a fringe person in the story.

As the two of them grow closer over several months at university as "study partners", it's apparent they are meant to be. It's a very slow buildup to what would seem to be the perfect ending, although I was wondering why there was only 2 minutes left and things were not wrapping up smoothly. And then... "to be continued". Oh boy. Well, I really like this movie and where it ends is pretty tantalizing, Of course, you have to pay for the sequel (unless you have a subscription to the channel-which I do-kudos to me).

The only "spoiler" here is that the movie is a spoiler. It's not a movie! It's an EPISODE.

It's pretty good when it comes to production & characters. But it's not a complete story! To blindside viewers with a "to be continued in 2016" is unforgivable. This is billed as a MOVIE - not a show. Not a series. Not a part 1 of ___. And now the resolution is a YEAR away?

You MUST tell your viewers what they're getting into. NOTHING happens & nothing is resolved in this 2-hour setup.

There's more story in the first 2 minutes than the entire rest of the 2 hours until the continuation blindside. Those 2 minutes were what kept me watching to the "end" that isn't an end.

Not cool.

Rather than upset viewers, be honest upfront & then maybe the entire thing wouldn't feel like 2 hours wasted. Might even help create anticipation rather than letdown.

log line posted on the day of airing 12/6/15: When Molly Allen finds out that The Bridge, a beloved bookstore back in her hometown of Franklin, TN, is in jeopardy along with the bookstore's owner, she returns to help, only to come face to face with her old flame.

The log line/description provided here on IMDb is completely bogus - probably matches the book, but not the movie. Even if Part 2 does resolve it to match the storyline somewhat, it isn't & never was the lead character's "hometown." And her name is not Molly Allen. So everything about this production is false advertising.

In other words, someone really screwed up here, ruining what may turn out to be a nice little series, but not when it's doled out like this.
