Huievest Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
Yash Wade Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
gehewe Absolutely loved Lindy Booth in Song of Christmas (2016). Loved her here too, but this movie did not quite work. First time I've seen Kristopher Polaha and he was a shining star. Treat Williams is great but the part of uncle Roy just wasn't a good fit. Overall the movie was a bit of disappointment. The story just went where it wanted with no emotional transitions. Not sure if the part of the brother or the girl friend really added anything to the movie. The title was probably added to give the movie some appeal; however, the movie had little to do with a Rocky Mountain Christmas- maybe "A Ranch Hand for Christmas" would be a better description. We stayed awake and it was enjoyable but does not deserve a re-watch.
Lew777 If I take a step back, I'd think the storyline of Sara (Lindy Booth), an Interior Designer of New York Hotels, who'd suffered a recent split from a TV celebrity , returns for Christmas to the family ranch in Colorado owned by her Uncle (Treat Williams), but who then meets a film star (Kristoffer Polaha) , who's learning to be a ranch-hand for his upcoming movie - then I'd say it's a big recipe for Corn & cheese !! However, both leads way out-perform a limited script , and are well supported by the supporting cast, especially Treat Williams who gives a bravura performance as a recently widowed rancher. I've seen a few Hallmark Christmas movies this Winter - and this is a pretty good one. Either that or I'm turning into a soppy romantic , the older I get !
zyxnix I'm not sure that Lindy Booth is quite ready to move up from supporting character to leading lady. She is a red head and that is going in her favor, however, she just doesn't have the look just yet. A few more years and she may be ready. No way these two will ever have a long term relationship. pathetic ending.
Amy Adler Sarah (Lindy Booth) is a decorator for a major hotel chain in Manhattan. She's very good at her job. But, a part of her heart is back in Colorado where her uncle raised her and her brother. Around Christmastime, Sarah takes a vacation back to the ranch and is upset by what she sees. Her uncle Roy (Treat Williams) lost his wife of many years some months before and he has given up on decorating and celebrating the holidays. There will be no Xmas parade in the town, no special tree lighting. True, it is hard to do these tasks without his mate, Beth. At once, Sarah decides the she and her brother Cody will try to make the parade happen. But, ho ho ho. A rather-famous actor, Graham (Kristoffer Polaha) arrives at the ranch to "learn the ropes" as he is preparing for an upcoming film. Disliking him at first and having very little time anyway, Sarah soon starts G's instruction when they warm up to one another. Graham also proves a valuable helper for the parade, etc. But, horrors, there's more. Roy may actually be thinking of selling the ranch and moving elsewhere. How can her uncle sell what is most precious to Sarah? This lovely movie has a sweet, predictable story, a cute cast, lovely scenery and universal themes of Christmas happiness. If you are a fan of Hallmark's Xmas romances, you will definitely want to view this one in the Rockies, the Ozarks, or wherever you are.
