Movie Reviews
A Holiday for Love

"Our family collects Christmas movies, and around the holidays, we watch nothing else. This is quickly becoming one of our absolute favorites. Melissa Gilbert and Tim Matheson have sweet charming chemistry, and are well paired for this film. Travis Tritt's performance was a surprise to me. I didn't know how well he acted, and loved his character.
This is a heartwarming inspirational movie, and one to be viewed over and over again especially around the holidays or when you just need to feel better.

Underrated actor!

"A very cute, wonderful movie. If you're a Travis Tritt fan, you'll love him in this and love his character. He proves to be a very good actor who seems to have personally experienced some of the story in his own life (some of the facial expressions and timing seem to come from his personal experience, not from acting!) I'm always looking for good Christmas movies, and this one was new to me. Also gave me more insight into Travis' "Where Corn Don't Grow" and I discovered just how talented this man is - and underappreciated! A great find."
Touching Christmas Story

"I first saw this movie on T.V. at Christmas time and having been looking for it to add to my Christmas movies. It will become a ritual to watch this with all my other Christmas favorites. It's a touching story and Melissa Gilbert is great!"
This should be released

"anew, because it's one of the loveliest, best made X-mas movie. I've bought it used and it quickly advanced to my absolute favourites. Very good acting, good script, the story is even highly up to date with people loosing their jobs not just here in Germany. One would wish there were more people like Jake coming to their senses, at least trying make things better. Very nice dream!"
