3 Bed, 2 Bath, 1 Ghost (2023)
Lovely movie!
I really enjoyed this movie. Aside from the ridiculous premise that a beautiful home like the one in the movie could ever come close to being a "tear-down", or for that matter, left to sit vacant for 50 plus years, the movie was well directed and the actors made it shine...especially the actress playing Ruby.
This movie was definitely a number of steps up from the typical romance one sees on streaming sites or Hallmark. From start to finish it had a magical quality that was not just the result of the basic story line built around a ghost, but also in the art direction depicting scenes from the past and the character development of the ethereal ghost.
I was pleasantly surprised by this movie's departure from the typical Hallmark fare due mostly to the story line and overall quality (and I'm a huge Hallmark fan). Madeleine was the highlight of the cast, and the setting was perfect. I enjoyed every minute.
Saving Christmas Spirit (2022)
Could have been so much better.
Nice story but some of the acting was straight out of a 9th grade school play. The actors playing Scots were obviously more seasoned actors and they saved it to a certain extent, but the lead actress needs to know that she doesn't have to smile through dialogue that is supposed to be serious, and the young man playing Finn needs a few more school plays in his resume before acting on screen. Timing was awful all the way through. It was a nice story line that was not well edited or directed. There was a very apparent lack of chemistry between the two leads that maybe good acting on both sides could have fixed but not in this case. Pedestrian at best.
