Edge of the Garden (2011 TV Movie)

Definitely one of the better Hallmark productions, nice

[8/10 · 22 July 2011]

You have to give Hallmark some kudos for producing this tight little fantasy. And yes it is fantasy, not a ghost story, or a horror tale. The setting is really beautiful and a great job was done keeping things atmospheric but warm at the same time. I am really not a huge Hallmark movie fan but I enjoyed this very much. Probably deserves a seven and a half though, but I posted the eight. Very good cast, the acting was believable and energetic. My only problem with the entire thing was the ending, which it was OK. I think it would have had more impact if Norah had died a short while before the Estes character finally found her. I thought his meeting Norah and the Granddaughter at the same time was a bit awkward. All in all though this was a very enjoyable film that most everyone should enjoy. Give it a shot! The actor playing the abusive husband managed to really make me hate him...good job my man.
