Napa Ever After (2023)
Excellent in every way
Fantastic, cool, funny actors - from the leads to the supporting cast - so well chosen! Fine story about family, loyalty, friends and not to forget - a little bit of romance. What a lovely location, vineyard, house and village - one felt immediately at home there. Of course, the story about the inheritance of such a place can't come without stumbling blocks and greedy bankers, but it did totally without telling lies, silly misunderstandings or overhearing something and getting it wrong, like we know from other movies of the genre. It was refreshing and so well played.
I will watch it again, what a pleasure!
A Picture of Her (2023)
Tyler always delivers!
Whenever Tyler Hynes is involved, I'm in, I really, really love his work and personality. This movie had not the greatest script, but Tyler and Rhiannon Fish did their best with incredible chemistry, humor, and I liked the instant genuine connection between the two. The aunt and the father were perfectly casted too, I liked their input very much. The movie was a lot quieter and slower in a good way, than we had seen both leads before. I've read a comment from someone, who thought, that Tyler Hynes didn't want to be in the movie, but I felt, that it was his way to play a somewhat disillusioned character, a photographer, who couldn't earn his living with his art and hated his own paparazzi work, but needed it nonetheless. Rhiannon is her bubbly, vivacious self, if you watch her interviews, she is just the same. And so I felt, that I get to see here a lot Tyler and Rhiannon, not only Jake and Beth. I already watched the movie 3 times, and believe me, it grows on you. Thank you, Hallmark, for the development of your movies from the boring formula to something fresh and genuine and for the support of interesting actors and their ideas!
