I've been watching a TON of Hallmark movies this holiday season, since Hallmark and AT&T U-verse recently came to terms over content rights. I think the acting in this movie is the best I have seen. There have been a few Hallmark Christmas movies on TV this season that have been just painful to watch - no chemistry between actors and bad acting. This was a refreshing change. Worth the time! Sure, the story line is familiar...young, beautiful girl bumps into handsome man who happens to be a king and unavailable..sort of. She is hired to be a governess for his high-spirited daughter at their European home and the attraction between the two starts. Of course, there is a Christmas Eve Ball and he asks the governess to attend. She looks absolutely gorgeous in a borrowed gown and the king can't take his eyes off of her. A "happily ever after" ending comes with the king professing his love for her. Every girl's dream is to have a prince or king sweep her off her feet...Disney has sold us on this story line over the years, haven't they?
