My Thoughts:
Marla Sokoloff and Rob Mayes have done a great job with this movie, and I really got in the Christmas spirit watching it. The actors are believable, from their chemistry to the fights that they have and the singing.
Marla Sokoloff is Lindsey, who is classically trained on the piano and loves to sing. She wants to make it in the music industry and doesn’t know what to do against Wes getting a gig with the manager that she needed. Lindsey is a great character, and I love it when she is fighting against Wes.
Rob Mayes is Wes, and he isn’t trained on the piano but trained himself with jazz music. He is a great character and seems to get lucky. Wes has one of those likable personalities which works well in the music industry. The job he gets even he didn’t think would happen. Now though, with Lindsey by his side, they will rise wholly and together share their lives.
My favorite scenes were the road trip scenes. They have a fun time, for the most part. Here is another one that I recommend.
