Who's ready for Christmas??

I am working again with Gracehill media, and am excited to share this movie with you all. I am excited to see this movie. "The Man Who Invented Christmas", it stars Dan Stevens (Downton Abbey, Beauty and the Beast), Jonathan Pryce (Pirates of the Carribean, Miss Saigon) and screen legend Christopher Plummer (The Sound of Music, A Beautiful Mind.

This looks like a fun family film that will be in theaters on Friday, November 22. Just in time for this holiday season! Dan Stevens brings beloved author Charles Dickens to life as we follow the inspiration that helped him craft one of the most cherished novels of all time, A Christmas Carol.

Synopsis: The Man Who Invented Christmas tells of the magical journey that led to the creation of Ebenezer Scrooge (Christopher Plummer), Tiny Tim and other classic characters from A Christmas Carol. Directed by Bharat Nalluri (MISS PETTIGREW LIVES FOR A DAY), the film shows how Charles Dickens (Dan Stevens) mixed real life inspirations with his vivid imagination to conjure up unforgettable characters and a timeless tale, forever changing the holiday season into the celebration we know today.



Stayed tuned, there might be some other fun things coming relating to the movie!!

Movie review and a giveaway

I was given the opportunity to review a movie before it airs, and have a giveaway with some one-of-a-kind giveaway items. The movie is a Hallmark Movies & Mysteries; “Signed, Sealed, Delivered: Truth Be Told”, which premieres on Sunday, September 13 at 9pm ET/PT, 8C. Created, executive produced and written by "Touched By An Angel" Executive Producer Martha Williamson.

A video preview:



The cast:

Eric Mabius ... Oliver O'Toole
Kristin Booth ... Shane McInerney
Crystal Lowe ... Rita Haywith
Geoff Gustafson ... Norman Dorman
Guest starring: Gregory Harrison (“One Tree Hill,” “Trapper John M.D.”).

From Hallmark: The POstables are on a mission to deliver a soldier's letter from Afghanistan, while Oliver's estranged father surprises him with news that shakes him to the core.

I loved the movie, its a traditional Hallmark movie the will tug at your heart strings. While watching movies that are war related, I feel for the characters, but now that my son is in the military, I always view the movies different, as I put myself in their shoes. I found myself wanting to wrap my arms around the teenager and comfort her. As for Oliver, I too could relate as I found out late in life that I too had two fathers, so that touched me as well.

So if you are looking for a great family movie to watch on Sunday, tune in on Sunday night at 9 pm ET/PT, 8C; you won't be disappointed.

Now for the giveaway, the following is what's up for grabs. This giveaway will be open until noon Monday 9/14. I will then do a random draw of the winner. I will have a post up later on Monday announcing the winner. Comment below with "Enter me". That's it, so good luck!!
