It is a Christmas film sustained by good intentions and by Marco Grazzini. And, in some measure, it is enough for a Hallmark movie . The try of supporting actors is not so bad, the steps of reconciliation father - daughter remains a sketch with unrealistic result but the film is real good intentioned and this saves some of it. The problem is the hole between first and second part and the improvised solutions for final. But, sure, it is only/ just Hallmark. Easy, nice intentioned and around romance. So, difficult ( and unfair ) to be very critic about it when the expectations, before the start credits.

Christmas Forgiveness/Lonestar Christmas (2020)- It's a very simple story and that's not a bad thing. It's done well although there are a few too many "Y'all's" and "Howdy's" trying too hard to let you know that they're cowboys and therefore they all sound a bit forced. Marco Grazzini has got such an easy smile that shines from his eyes and a lovely face to back it up, which makes him easy to watch, but he just seems a bit out of place. With that said, I've never been to the lone-star state to know who belongs there. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't like me. I have my own daddy issues, so I can connect with the character of Erin, I've always felt that my Dad was absent even before he died and I'd like to be able to talk to him now for some closure. At least she can still confront hers about the way she feels and she should definitely appreciate that, however, she is an arsey cow who enjoys wallowing in her misery. She doesn't actually have an issue, it's all on her. She's the one that can't move on and is holding herself and, as a result, her kids back, where the Dad is keen to build bridges and do whatever he can, so I didn't like her or think her good enough for Marco's character Mateo. I didn't need the singing and the young girls are not brilliant actors either. Basically she's got issues and he's cute. And at least it's a slightly different tale and not badly produced. 6.30ish/10.
