Fall into Fall with these FEEL-Good Movies, by, Gina Meyers




Yes, it's September and a sure sign that it is still summer, but some beacon of hope that fall is on its' way. Yesterday, in fact where I live was  85 degrees Fahrenheit.

Almost ready for your Hallmark filled Christmas? Well before you pop the popcorn, and uncork the sparkling cider, let's mull over some falling into the fall feel good movies, sure to get you in the holiday spirit, or just feel good before your Christmas movie obsession commences.

The truth is I've been paying for Netflix and haven't been watching, Amazon Prime seems to be my one stop shop, so before I cancel my Netflix membership, I thought, I'd see how well Netflix's selection of Rom Coms is going. It's going....

The movies I am mentioning/reviewing:

Both stories involve romance and remodeling, a Chip and Joanna Gaines sort of story fictionalized.

Falling Inn Love

Romance and remodeling collide when a corporate executive wins a New Zealand inn that lacks curb appeal.


The real story is that the American just looses her job, breaks up with her commitment phobic boyfriend, drinks too much wine one night and out of desperation goes online and enters a contest to win an Inn/Bed and Breakfast. She wins the Inn, but falls into some sticky situations once she arrives in a foreign country, New Zealand. The Inn is old, dilapidated, and haunted. The only one who can save the day seems to be an uppity Aussie hell bent on making the American's life difficult. But that's only the beginning. 




The Lakehouse

A magical, fantasy tale about an architect, a doctor, their dreams and their lives. Their lives, though separate by space and time, collide as the Lake House has magical abilities to transform space and time while healing both Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves from their hopes, dreams, lives, and fortune. A serendipitous tale that supersedes time.
