6/10
one false move
3 July 2022
A woman (Jessy Schram) suffers amnesia after getting hit by a car. She doesn't even remember her own name. Sheriff Crowley (Lochlyn Munro) tries to uncover her identity. All they have is a newspaper article about a tree lighting event. Despite having no memories, she decides to go to the tree lighting in hopes of finding herself. Her nurse Paul Bennett (Brendan Penny) offers to drive her.

Jessy Schram always has this fragile look which works really well for this type of character. I know that she and Paul have a tiff but he cannot just walk away from her. They could be kidnappers for all he knows. He has to be her protector. Of course, the film does that for dramatic reasons but it's not a good look for him. It's the movie's only false note and the last twenty minutes suffers for it. It feels false when the rest of the movie is trying so hard for sincerity. Otherwise, I like this for Hallmark.
