Love Comes Softly (13-Apr-2003)
Director: Michael Landon, Jr. Writers: Cindy Kelley; Michael Landon, Jr. From a novel by: Janette Oke Keywords: Romantic Drama, Western
REVIEWS Review by anonymous (posted on 24-Jul-2006) This is the best faith-oriented
western for families in years, based on Best-Selling Author Janette
Oke's book series. It is frequently rerun on The Hallmark Channel, who
helped create the movie, plus Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN), which
has bought rights to show the series. Just like his Father before him,
Michael Landon, Jr. does a fantastic job as Director! The best acting
in this movie comes from Actor Dale Midkiff (who plays the Father) and
young Actress Skye McCole Bartusiak, who plays the childhood version of
Missy Davis in this movie. Skye's acting shines well over that of
Katherine Heigl (who plays her new Mama). It would be wonderful if the
Hallmark Channel, Michael Landon, Jr. and Janette Oke would get
together and create a regular TV series based on this original movie!
There now are 3 movies in the series. Sadly, Actress January Jones, who
played Missy Davis as a teen in the second movie, called "Love's
Enduring Promise", later was replaced in the third movie. Like Dale
Midkiff and Skye McCole Bartusiak, January Jones was a perfect typecast
for her part!
Review by anonymous (posted on 4-Jan-2007) Four stars isn't enough. Catherine Heigl and Dale Midkiff click together just like Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan. I fell in love with this georgeous man and can't get enought of his shows/movies and she is mezmorinzing and thoroughly captivating. I cried in this movie and it really touched my heart. She has a regular TV show Greys Anatomy, but when can we see more of this man????!!! I just watched him as the US Marshall on Route 666. He's great in anything. MORE DALE MIDKIFF PLEASE
