So, to start - Aurora is younger and while the actress that plays her is probably a good actress, she is not what I think of when I think of a young Aurora. Original Aurora was played, perfectly, by Candace Cameron. The original Aurora was bubbly and cute with a cute little voice and when she was exploring a crime she had emotions both in her face and her actions/reactions. I have the same to say about the rest of the cast. Sally was ok, and to anyone who decided to bring weight into a review, that was not a factor and advise was not necessary or needed. The actress was over the top for Sally. Arthur was tall and now as a young man is average height. Now, out of all of the actor's on this particular Aurora, he is the best. The story itself was mediocre. It was like everybody was pretending to like their characters. The person involved in the plot was no surprise and honestly all of the character's had figured it out. No surprises. I feel like Hallmark is trying to get back in with those of us who loved the original mysteries. Those actor's are gone. The mistake has been made. However, if they want to try again with young Aurora, they need to get one that reminds us of the original character who actually had emotions.
