This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

I am not the best to judge a predictable and sappy movie, but I decided to give this Hallmark classic a try since I have liked the work of the main characters. What a disappointment. The scenery, for the most part, was nice, but that was about it. What I found interesting was the scene, early on, when Marty is being offered the deal from Clark and through her wet blouse you can clearly see a modern bra strap. The fish out of water (city girl in fancy duds trying to learn how to do basic chores around a farm) was ridiculous. Here she was, newly married and heading west and they dump food along the trail but not books? And Clark's line about how only a man SO in love with his headstrong wife would do such a thing. Try again. And they have basically only books. I did not see any tools in that wagon in the beginning, so how did these city folk think they were going to build a cabin and barn? And she "tames" the wild daughter and falls in love with the guy in the end. Zzzzzzzz.

I respect and admire Dale Midkiff very much. I have seen a lot of his movies but this one really moved me. He was so kind, patient and played his charicter so well. I especially loved this movie because it was a family movie you didn't have to be afraid to watch for the bad language.He is a great actor and highly under rated. I would love to see his movies begin to take a turn for the better and prayer that he will get the recognition he deserves. I think if he start getting some roles in better movies this will happen for him. Besides his incredible good looks can't hurt, as a matter of fact I'm surprised he isn't at the top already due to his looks and magnetic personality!

This is a wonderful movie about loss, love and faith. It has become my absolute favorite movie...for now at least. The little girl Missie is such a doll and perfect for her role.The movie has a bit of "Little House on the Prairie" feel to it but has a lot of it's own appeal. All of my friends love this sweet movie, too. Just shows Hollywood that not all of us are into the s_x, blood and gore of most movies out there. Most of us adore the more faith-based, clean, wholesome movies.My favorite part that makes me cry every time is when Marty is swinging on the homemade rope swing and is crying and crying over the loss of her husband...awe, just too sweet. And then when Marty walks in on Missy crying over her mothers death and confronts Marty, oh, my heart just breaks.This is a movie that the whole family can watch together.

I didn't really think this series was going to be my type of movie, though I have always liked a good romance. It definitely reminds me of Little House on the Prairie. I'm sure we all know why that is. When I watched this movie the first time, I cried throughout. It is absolutely wonderful! I highly recommend watching the entire series, especially watching them in the proper order. If you can't find a place to rent them, they would be well worth the purchase! I'm just trying to save up money so I can buy them for myself. I wish Little House on the Prairie would come out on DVD as well so I could add it to my collection. Unless it's come out and I just haven't found it yet?
