Very solid Hallmark movie

I always enjoy it when Hallmark holiday movies include musicians and music. This one stars a country music star (Macfarlane) and classical violinist (Hemmens). There are a few musical numbers, which were terrific. I could have listened to a lot more of that.

Macfarlane also has a daughter he's raising alone, which introduces a nice family vibe to the romance. Grief is a theme as both the country music star and the violinist recently lost someone important. Both main characters are in multi-racial families, and the script actually brought up issues of racial identity (in a very light way) which I appreciated.

A really solid Hallmark movie worth keeping.

One con - Luke Macfarlane has a scene where he sings--there's a reason why he's an actor not a singer. But points to him for putting his heart into it.

A little painful

Sorry, but it was extremely hard to watch and listen to Sean play for Beth.... definitely not in Luke's wheelhouse....either cast a singer or change the script...

Very beautiful story and great depth

Much deeper story than the typical Hallmark fare. I thought the race issues it tackled were done incredibly well and aided the connection between the characters. I appreciated that it was Luke voice and I had no issues with his singing. Lovely story and romance. My only issue at all was with the editing. Note to Hallmark or Dish - the cuts to commercial were the most awkward ever and really distracted from this wonderful movie.

Missed the mark

I love Luke MacFarlane in many roles but not this one. First, Hallmark should have chosen an actor who could be more convincing with a Southern accent. I'm happy Hallmark is trying to incorporate more diversity, but it still needs to be believable and this was not. There was so much going on in this movie that I found myself distracted by trying to figure out all the relationships. Finally, Luke is not believable as a country star, whereas Heather is brilliant. They seem unequal in that respect.

music & grief

Sean's daughter, Katie, has a concert at school, so they hire Beth, a violinist to help her practice for 3 weeks.

At first, I didn't realise this was a HM&M movie, so I was confused about what was going on. You know how their movies tend to be a little more complex. This is no exception. They deal with grief, and something that really surprised me, racial identity. Music is, of course, the main thing going on. And I discovered that Hallmark movies that base their plot around music are not my thing.

In my opinion, it was okay. At the beginning, there is no much going on, and it can be quite boring. The exciting things happen at the end. At the beginning they deal with the topics I mentioned before. I was more interested in the secondary relationships (Beth and Katie, Sean and Katie, Sean and his mother in law, Katie and her grandma) that in the main one. I want to point out one particular scene at the beginning with Katie and her grandma, that just filled my heart with love.

I would love to see Heather in a more cheerful character. But good performances by the whole cast. I do not think there is chemistry between the leads, which is a bummer because I love Luke.

Anyway, not a fave, but it touches very important themes.

Most of the violin playing was done by Kenny Wong and he can be seen in the orchestra near the end of this movie.

Citações
Sean: Excuse me ma'am. Hi.
Beth: Hi.
Sean: Um. I'm here to pick up music for my daughter Katie.
Beth: Um. Yea. Sure. Um. Just a moment... Katie. Hey. Katie. Your daughter is very advance.
Sean: No. Um. I just found it online. Katie said she needed some help with technique.
Beth: Oh. OK. I see. I would actually recommend Vivaldi's Concerto in A Minor. It has a lot of scale work in it. That may be better for her.
Sean: Sure. I'll take all the help I can get. Classical music is not really my thing.
[pause]
Sean: Better with country.
Beth: [chuckles] Oh. OK. That's different.
Sean: I take it you're not a fan.
Beth: All that my dog, my truck, my women done me wrong, doesn't it start to sound the same after a while?
Sean: You know, some people might say the same thing about classical.
Beth: Well, you would be wrong. Classical has the advantage of no outdated lyrics.
Sean: Oh. But those strings, they just put you to sleep.
Beth: I play one of those strings.
Sean: [chuckles] You know, maybe you shouldn't be such a music snob if you work in a music store.
Beth: Well, I don't work here for one. And for another...
Sean: You just walk into random joints and freelance your opinion?
Beth: My best friend Sheila owns this joint. And I do believe that you started it. Hmm.
Sean: Um.
Sheila Sterchi: Here you go.
[pause]
Sheila Sterchi: Sean. Hi.
Sean: Hey Sheila.
Sheila Sterchi: Hi. I see you met Beth. My best friend in the world.
[chuckles]
Sheila Sterchi: Did you get the piece?
Sean: Yea. Um. She set me up. What do I owe you for it?
Sheila Sterchi: I'll put it on your account.
Sean: Thank you. And, um, Merry Christmas best friend.
Beth: Merry Christmas.
Sean: Bye Sheila.
Sheila Sterchi: Do you even know who that was? Sean Grant.
Beth: Who?
Sheila Sterchi: The country music star.
Beth: Really?
Sheila Sterchi: Yes.
Beth: Seriously?
Sheila Sterchi: City Girl, Red Tail Hawks, Sweet Huckleberry.
Beth: Hmm. Maybe that last one.
[Sheila laughs]
Beth: I don't know.
Sheila Sterchi: Oh. You are the weirdest.
