A Family Thanksgiving

I ordered this last year while in the Christmas movie buying spirit. I think Thanksgiving had already passed so it was a long time before I watched it. However, I've watched it twice this year so obviously I like it. I was surprised to see Faye Dunaway again and she was probably the main reason I ordered it. I had not seen her in anything lately and she is important to the plot of the movie but we don't see a lot of her. This is not an unusual storyline. So many of the movies have someone who lost a loved one around this time of the year or they are so busy with their career that they don't think about any of the holidays. This movie falls into the category of work, only it's one of two that have the plot with a woman and no ghost that got them there. I think the part I liked best was how the super busy lawyer was constantly putting down her sister who is a stay-at-home Mom. The lawyer thinks her job is her life and she believes her sister does nothing and has lots of time. It's nice to see working at home Mom's vindicated as the super sister learns there is more to life than her job and her sister is extremely busy and being a Mom is just as important as her life as a lawyer. Unlike most of these movies, the lawyer did not give up a love to take her job but in the life "Gina" (Faye Dunaway) takes her to, her husbands a man she only met once. It's a movie about choices and while the ending is much like the others made like this, there is a surprise twist in the way it gets there. It's a nice enjoyable family movie while you're in this spirit of the holidays.

Great holiday movie..... I watch this one over and over.....Always puts a smile on my face along with "laugh out loud" laughter. So much fun to watch.. and Daphne Zuniga is way more than a beautiful face. She definitely has the acting chops to match that beautfiul face, and her co-star handsome husband can act as well. Hope to see these two back together again in anything else they decide to star in so long as it is no higher than PG of course....

This is a great movie about the older times ! Proverty was a real issue! As a women with Children lost her Husband She could lose a very simple House ! Food still needs to be grown & the Mother of the daughter has money & Her grand Daughter is talented with writting! She writes Her Grand mother & This helps lead into the Christmas Movie that us very good also!

I love this movie and wait for it to come on every year. I only wish it was available for purchase, so I could own it and watch it year round.

I like wholesome family type movies, what more can I say. The biggest reason is, I believe we can do without the profanity in movies. I have watched the movie several times since I bought it. I know that they want to make movies as realistic as possible, but, I believe they overdo the profanity just a bit.

Enjoyed watching while hubby was out of the house and I had some time to myself. I clicked on it because I thought it was one of the Good Witch movies as stated in the description but it is not. Cute movie either way.

My wife lives for November and December with Hallmark Movies. This one will not disappoint as it follows the formula to a T! My wife saw about 80% of the movie, but lost a portion. We ordered it for her so she would not have to wait a year to see how it ended.:)BillH

Great to find the dvd-it was hard to find

LOVE this movie! Good, honest story line. A pleasure to watch. Would definitely recommend buying this one!

Very entertaining and of course, a little corny and you know what the outcome will be. I guess I am a sucker for cutsie movies! I loved it.

The movie was lovely and it gave our much enjoyment. It was delivered in good shape and it will be used every year for Thanksgiving

Funny movie enjoyed it

Watch it every Thanksgiving. Really enjoyable movie
