One Winter Weekend (2018 TV Movie)
4/10
Not that good
7 January 2019
I rarely write reviews, and completely agree with those on here that the secondary couple was for more interesting than the main couple.

I also agree that this isn't Taylor Cole's best (but I love her in Christmas in Homestead).

However, the biggest issue for me might seem paltry to others - the complete factual inaccuracy when discussing And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie. It's been out forever - it's not that hard to get it right - and yet Cole's character arrogantly corrects/informs her paramour that his guesses for the ending on whodunnit are wrong. She's supposed to be a mystery writer who loooooves mystery books, and yet she's completely wrong.

He guesses two people to be the killer, and one of his guesses is correct. She tells him both are wrong with an air of superiority. It bothered me that they'd not only have something so wrong, but have it said in such an arrogant manner by a character who SHOULD know.

Couldn't take it seriously after that. It's like when Hallmark throws in a classic or respected author/actor/theme without knowing anything about it. With google alive and well, it's not even remotely hard to get your facts straight.
