Miscommunication, you ask? Go ahead and mark that square as well. The couple has chemistry from the beginning, making it so easy to root for them the entire way through.įor all you bingo enthusiasts, the Christmas-y heart of a town is potentially in peril, but not to worry, someone is there to save the day. His portrayal of the character made him much more likable than the on-paper description would’ve had me think.

I really liked Shenae Grimes in this movie it was the first Hallmark title I had seen her in, and I was hooked from the start. But will a case of mistaken identity ruin the whole plan?” iv It’s left to Riley to talk him out of it and turn him into a man of virtue rather than shame. He’s a bad-boy socialite type who is poised to play Scrooge by closing one of his factories just before Christmas, which would devastate an entire town. “Riley is scraping bottom when she miraculously lands a job with a wealthy New York City entrepreneur. I will give credit where it’s due and say that even though this movie uses a well-worn trope, it has a couple of unexpected twists. For the record, there are Hallmark movie bingo cards, and this is 100% a square. We all roll our eyes when we hear the fictional name (Genovia, anyone?), but we watch the predictable conflict play out regardless. The list would not be complete without the ‘surprise-prince-of-a-made-up-country’ cliché. But as their first Christmas together approaches, Leo drops a bombshell on his unsuspecting girlfriend: he is actually Prince Leopold, heir to the throne of Cordinia, a small sovereign country.” iii She is a devoted seamstress at the family business and madly in love with her doting European boyfriend, Leo. “Emily Corrigan is a kindhearted young woman proud of her blue-collar background. Just lean into the holiday spirit and pretend like it all makes sense there’s a guaranteed happy ending, so roll with it.

Her co-star Andrew Walker more or less, carries this one, but it was nice to see a semi-new face. Occasionally one of the main characters is played by an actor or actress who isn’t a resident of Hallmark-ville in this case, that’s Ashley Greene - notably Alice from The Twilight Saga for anyone wondering.
She returns to Bedford Harbor, Maine for the town’s Christmas celebration and rediscovers the woman she used to be, what matters most, and that a Christmas miracle can bring back love thought to be lost forever.” ii
“A bump on the head, an unexplained wedding dress, and temporary short-term amnesia lead Lucy Lovett on a search for the truth about her breakup with longtime sweetheart Zach Callahan. If you end up liking Andrew Walker, I would also recommend Bottled With Love which airs during the spring and summer. What we think we want doesn’t always turn out to be the case and, even if it is, it might not be what we need. It’s such a touching narrative of the ‘what-ifs?’ in life, and the different pathways that lives can take. A Dream of Christmas was both enjoyable, and yet, not frustrating - in fact, I cried.
That’s an odd endorsement, and it might make you wonder why I would bother watching them, but ’tis the season, after all. Usually, I find Hallmark movies to be both enjoyable and mildly frustrating.
