Review of Holly & Ivy

Holly & Ivy (2020 TV Movie)
10/10
Came for Jeremy Jordan, Stayed for the Female Friendship
14 November 2020
I am a long-time fan of Tony-Nominated Jeremy Jordan. Musicals are my jam and he's the best. I've never seen him in a role where he didn't kill it, and this movie is no exception. I thought the relationship between his character, Adam, and Melody was sweet. There was a moment where the typical "misunderstanding" was about to derail them, and then they had *gasp* an actual conversation.

But, one of the best parts of this movie is that it's not all about the romance. It was a nice surprise to see that the friendship between Melody and Nina took center stage. This movie does have more sadness than your typical Hallmark movie with the situation Nina is going through. But, there is still that uplifting feeling you come to expect from Hallmark movies.

I hope that Hallmark continues to employ Broadway stars. Jeremy Jordan is just one in the movies this season. The 2020 movie One Royal Holiday has three! Way to step up your game Hallmark!
