Moonlight in Vermont

This movie was absolutely delightful. I am a big fan of Lacey Chabert and her heartfelt and sincere acting, and I watched this for mainly that reason, but boy was I surprised.

Sometimes Hallmark movies can get dull, the story line isn't developed enough, they can be slow, and worst of all, the main characters sometimes have no chemistry.

This was one of the best made for TV movies I have seen in such a long time! Good acting by absolutely everyone, with Lacey shining and even more natural acting abilities than the last time we saw her. It also had adventure, lessons about people changing, re- evaluating and mending strained relationships. No part of it was forced or too adolescent, just an all around enjoyable movie!

I will be watching this one every time it comes on :)

Setting is mentioned as spring, not winter. Dialogue even mentions "late snow". Entirely possible maple trees could be giving up first sap.

Also, snow on ground in no way implies current ambient temperature is freezing. Cold, sure, but not necessarily freezing. Concrete will set just fine, just take a bit longer. Adding baking soda accelerates the hardening, btw.

About 20 minutes into watching this movie, I realized I had actually seen it before! A sweet story and cute setting, but overall unmemorable.

Moonlight in Vermont is your typical country good-city bad, pretend boyfriend to make old boyfriend jealous, issues with dad Hallmark fare. The only thing to set it apart is good production values, cute setting, and the always reliable Lacey Chabert. Unfortunately she is not given too much to work with here. Her love interest is pretty cute as well and her step mother was a nice smart woman and not the source of tension or conflict. Her rejection of city life for stop to smell the roses country living was too quick and not well supported.

A comfortable film. Romance, humor, apparences,Lacey Chambert reminding Jennifer Love Hewitt, nice couple, jealous boyfriend, syrup contest and what is real important dominating. And, sure, a lovely story in which the sad past becomes start point for happiness. So, far to be bad or to conventional, it is just a comfortable, nice film.
