Prescription for Love (2019 TV Movie)
5/10
Unapologetic Cinderella rip off
24 June 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Remember that this type of movie has absolutely nothing in common with realism. I don't care what job it is, you can't fire someone on the spot for anything less than a major criminal or violent act, and even then. The reasons would not have stood up in the light of day. It is also very unfortunate that Claire acted like a total wimp and didn't make the most basic resistance formally. Add to that, that both doctors knew that she gave them the clue they needed for the grump's issues. The firing might have stood after due process, which is required by employment law, but not the way it went down.

Luke is a jerk. I too find it difficult to believe that if they had enough light to play game of shrimp toss, then he would have seen her face, and even without the light he would have heard her voice. And he had spent enough time with nurse Claire to know she wasn't gold digging.

And where was Mrs. Godfrey. They made a big deal about how important and demanding she was and yet she did basically nothing except for the Fairy Godmother part.

Like I said. Nothing in common with realism. Still it was distracting.

Jillian Murray was a breath of fresh air in a sea of chaos. She fit the Cinderella role pretty well. Belle Warren as Payton was another bright spot.
