Legend of the Lost Locket

I liked this movie better than most Hallmark movies. I'd actually like to see it become a series.

An antiques dealer from England comes to New England in search of half of an historical locket. She lands in the small, quaint town of Wilmaton and meets the friendly locals.

The lovely Natasha Burnett plays the antiques dealer. I had never seen her work before, but she has a new fan in me. She was elegant and classy. As a POC myself, it was refreshing to see another POC portrayed in this positive light. We need more role models like this in film. And it wasn't only Natasha's character who was portrayed as intelligent and successful. The other people of color were similarly depicted.

This could be a cute series. Each episode could center around an antique with an interesting and mysterious story. I hope HM will consider that.

Overall a very pleasant way to spend an evening. The entire cast was good, but Natasha was clearly the stand-out for me. Thanks, Hallmark.
