All For Love(2017)

Sara Rue and Steve Bacic A novelist and a Navy SEAL must team up for research purposes on a book, and the novelist is not thrilled about this collaboration. However, she soon has a change of heart and begins to look at her life and her writing from a different point of view.- Rotten Tomatoes THE MOVIE Genre: Drama Directed By: Lee Friedlander Written By: Mark Famiglietti , Michael Testa , Tracy Andreen , Lee Friedlander Runtime: 120 minutes Studio: Book Road Production Ltd. Note: I read the reviews AFTER writing my thoughts, but decided to copy paste three of them below.  I think you'll understand why.

For actors, that's a good thing, right?  Right! The rest of t...

Google Images Lizzie Richfield lands a job as house manager for the exquisite Ashford Estate in the Virginia countryside. While preparing the place for sale, Lizzie plans one final Christmas Eve gala for the family, although they seem to be a family in name only. Initial release: 18 November 2017 (USA) Director: Mel Damski Original release: November 18, 2017 Based on: Coming Home for Christmas by Jenny Hale Original network: Hallmark Channel Produced by: Harvey Kahn It's seldom...well, close to rare...that I find a film where 100% of the people surveyed loved it.  This movie is one of those rarities that it piqued my interest. Unfortunately, some critics and reviewers think otherwise.  To each his own. This made for TV movie is based on the beloved Novel by Jenny Hale of the same title.  Instead of Allie, the lead character of this movie is nicknamed Lizzie, played by Danice McKellar. I have not read Jenny Hale's masterpiece just yet, but ma...
