Love's Unfolding Dream

This movie was awesome!! i am a college student and i enjoyed every minute of every one of these movies in this series! this movie is definitely something that everyone can enjoy!=) all the characters and the time period was just perfect! and really does show that no matter what happens in life God is always there with us and that he doesn't give us anything we can't handle. Also it shows that in life when you try to make it without God in your life, you are not truly happy. i loved it and i hope that many people watch these and enjoy the good morals and the great story lines that each of these movies have!! It is so nice to sit down and watch warning though after the first one you will be hooked! they are so addicting! and you will laugh and cry with the people in the movies!

I've watched all the Love's...., Janette Oak based films and enjoyed them all. But..., It drives me crazy to see a supposed 35 year old widow - Missy - with long flowing locks running down her back. If she is like real women from that time, she should have tightly arranged hair - usually a single bun. Why can't American film makers get these things right? The British do it, so I find myself looking at the latter's shows much more often. Also, why do all the leads have to be beautiful or exceptionally handsome! Again, the British frequently have wonderful actors who have interesting looks, but could never be called beautiful or handsome.

In this series, my favorite was the first, Love Comes Softly, and here it seemed that the era was better captured without ridiculously coiffed or dressed actors. In this one, even the Belinda character seems out of the time. I did reluctantly rate this a seven, because I enjoyed the plot and thought the actors were fine, but I would have given it a 2 or 3 if it was being rated for historical accuracy.

The sixth installment in the Hallmark's 'Love Comes Softly' movie series. I can't believe I have crossed the halfway mark with this in the series, yet a long way to go. I really enjoyed so far with many ups and lows. I am happy with this part compared to the previous two where the series hit the rock bottom. This film was much better and had a very nice storyline. Yet a few more new characters were introduced as the storytelling expanded to the next timeline.

I am just recalling the whole series very briefly to remind you that it all began with Marty and then moved later to her step-daughter, Missie. From this, the third generation story begins with Missie's step-daughter, Belinda. So the theme is getting little modern while proceeding in the each film in the series. Modern means that contrasts with the period of time when the story sets in. The story remains still in the cowboy culture and explores the various subjects.

"The only thing you have to rely on this world is yourself."

One of the best movie in the series that perfectly represents the title. Most importantly for the first time the story focuses other than the family issue. Well, there's romance as well, which is short and cute. The actual narration is Belinda's interest in taking up her career very seriously. For a late 19th century woman, even in the New World that was a challenging thing. So how everything goes is the entire movie.

Well, 'Love Comes Softly' and deaths in its all the films are not co-incident, but a customary, that's how I felt so far. Some of the deaths were very emotional and connected deeply with the main characters, those had a strong hold in the storytelling. But some were simply unnecessary, like in this one perhaps. Maybe it was a lesson, a turning point, or medicines were not advanced to save people from the deaths or 'to make realise its value/worth' kind of stuff. So I accept it in this, because it was not that bad, but the way it happened was so silly.

Besides the 'deaths', the loverboy is the other thing who comes from nowhere and steals the woman of the movie. I mean in a good way, but I don't know, maybe that is the way it was happening in those times. Like I mentioned earlier, it's flourishing towards the 20th century. Maybe the next movie would take place in the city, but have to wait and see. Because that is an exciting thing to see a city for the first time. I had a very good time with this, and believe the forthcoming films would be even better. So see you later...

7/10

New generation and new love story. Temptation of some critics but the message, the sweetness, the moral lessons and the supporting characters are just enough for appreciate the new part of series.

I admitt, I was seduced more by supporting actors performances and by temptation to imagine new version of Michaela Quin. Because the way of Belinda, out of supposition about pre - feminism, reflects the spirit of a so easy idealized United States in its modern age.

Sure, the romance between Belinda and Andrew is forced in some measure but good kick to remind the others of series. And the transformation of girl in young woman is just fair crafted.

So, nice, in real sense, is the good word to define this film.

This is a faith based story. It even gets a bit preachy at times as the characters depend on their faith to face difficult situations.

It is also a story about an intelligent and independent young woman. Sometimes she has a bit of a chip on her shoulder which for a woman at that time was necessary if she was going to break into a man's world. She could also cry because she had compassion for everyone around her.

This story is sappy. Very sappy. It's predictable in a general sense with a nice detail or two to liven it up.
