Ugh. What garbage. Whoever decided to rewrite this beautiful story should be fired. Don't waste your time watching this.
It's like the writers have no concept of how life was back in the 1930's, and they certainly did no research to help them! Why even try to rewrite the story!! Just stick with the original, which beautifully embodies the innocence of that era without trying to put a modern day, progressive spin to it.
The acting also reminds me of a bad high school play. I should have known better...it's a Hallmark production. I have never enjoyed their productions. Cheesy, awkward, lousy writing, lousy acting. If you like Harlequin novels, then this should be right up your ally.
My recommendation is skip this version and go straight to the original 1970's version. This one is truly a rotten tomato.
