Love Under the Olive Tree (2020 TV Movie)
5/10
Two competitive childhood friends reconnected amongst the olives at the fall festival.
11 April 2022
A lot of competition between childhood friends Nicole and Jake. Their grandfathers started an olive oil making farm/business together that ended on less than amiable terms...creating two neighboring farms and businesses.

This year Nicole is taking over the business from her grandfather and wants to expand the business...only Jake who is now a lawyer finds a document that disputes the property line and halts her progress.

This brings Jake back for the fall festival...can these two clear up a lot of misunderstandings?

There was some awkwardness in the interaction between cast members, particularly at the beginning of the film. The jocular competition became fun after awhile and I appreciated that Jake's grandfather was so kind to Nicole throughout the film.

It was interesting to see a little of the olive oil industry, something I have enjoyed on Turkish TV for awhile (shout out to a great series called Dolunay). Was this my favorite hallmark romance, no...but still better than a lot of what is on tv at the moment.
