    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      It's stated in the "goofs" section about this movie, that at the Mayfield party, Richard's character says hello to Gridley but calls him Richard instead of Gridley. Actually, it's Gridley (with his back to the camera) saying hello to Richard. A closer look shows that Richard simply raises his eyebrows a bit at Gridley then gives a half-smile with no words being spoken, by Richard, until they take photos together and give their names.
    • Goofs
      When Gridley shows Josie his driftwood sundial in the park (early in the movie), the sky sky is overcast. No shadows anywhere.
    • Quotes

      Maxwell Gridley: [about Josie's boyfriend] So, who's the lucky guy?

      Josie Mayfield: [catching the bottle of water Gridley throws to her] Ooh, thank you. Ah, he is an executive headhunter.

      Maxwell Gridley: Ouch. And what do your folks think of this boyfriend?

      Josie Mayfield: You know my Dad. He doesn't think anybody's good enough for me.

      Maxwell Gridley: I know he didn't think I was good enough for you.

      Josie Mayfield: Don't feel bad. Richard has everything that's on my father's checklist, and he still doesn't approve.

      Maxwell Gridley: Ah, the Mayfield checklist: good job, good family, good manners... good-bye.

      Josie Mayfield: Right.

      Maxwell Gridley: Well, I'm just going to come out and say it - you know why your Dad's repulsed by this guy...

      Josie Mayfield: I never said he was repulsed.

      Maxwell Gridley: Look, it's his job. No father wants his daughter dating a cannibal in a suit.

      Josie Mayfield: He's not a cannibal. He is a headhunter.

      Maxwell Gridley: What's the difference?

      Josie Mayfield: Richard places clients in employment positions, and a cannibal chops people up and eats them for dinner.

      Maxwell Gridley: Tomayto/tomahto.

    A Gem!
    I love this Hallmark sweetheart of a movie! In particular, Paul Campbell is a gem! He is so likable and natural! Hope we see more of him! This is my 3rd time seeing this. 2017, 2018, 2020! Love it more each time! And then there's Tim Conway! What a treat! Sorry he's no longer with us, but how wonderful he see him in this. He's a natural! I would give this 12 stars out of 10 if I could!
