  1. I haven't seen this, but I like the message of it, so I'll need to check it out. I've been watching lots of Christmas and feel good movies the past 2 weeks or so, and it brightens up my day. Hope you're doing well! Hugs, RO

    1. I've been looking over Christmas movie options for the season, too :) Feel-good movies are just the thing, especially during the Christmas season.

  6. Was pretty good, but I could't help but worry that he was going to be hung for shooting two men on their property. Too pragmatic, I guess--LOL! ;)

    1. They don't let logic and actual legal niceties interfere with a good plot ;)
