![]() ![]() ![]() There she meets the resort owner’s son and you know what happens as she grows to love the snow and the resort. Predictable but watchableĪ city girl not used to winter Christmases is sent to check out a resort her father is buying. Add in some quite lovely camera-work of the snow-drenched landscape near Vancouver, and you have a fine holiday romcom. Bure feels rootless and enchanted by the order and beauty she sees about her. Hutch is oppressed by four generations of tradition, including an elaborate series of events and recipes and even regular family guests which must be rigorously followed, with no room for the changes he wants to make. She arrives in the middle of its Christmas season and finds love with both Jesse Hutch and the idea of Christmas in this Hallmark Channel seasonal romantic comedy. The Weight of Snow on BoughsĪlan Thicke’s corporation has bought the Snow Valley resort from its third generation and sends his daughter, Candace Cameron Bure, to survey it. It’s a better than average Christmas TV movie that will make you smile. It has humor, romance, and heartwarming family moments. The story is predictable but who cares really? This isn’t challenging stuff but it is enjoyable. The Canadian scenery (subbing for Maine) is lovely. Oh, and just to preserve it for posterity in case someone changes it: Jesse Hutch’s IMDb bio currently brags that he shares a birthplace with fictional comic book character Wolverine and tells a rather odd anecdote about him faking a hostage situation at his high school.

He does well and has nice chemistry with Candace. This is one of the bigger roles I’ve seem him in. He’s been a guest-star on just about everything that films in Canada. Jesse Hutch is an actor whose face is very recognizable if you watch much TV, even if you can’t remember where exactly you’ve seen him before. The fact that Thicke used to play Candace’s brother Kirk’s father on Growing Pains no doubt led to some back-patting for whoever cast him. Alan Thicke is good as her not-so-likable dad. She’s the same here as she is in every role: pretty, charming, likable. I’m always down for a good Candace Cameron Bure TV movie, especially a Christmas one. If you think she’ll fall for the handsome son (Jesse Hutch) and have a change of heart about Christmas, you must have seen a Hallmark movie before. Stephanie spends the week before Christmas with the family, experiencing the holiday their way. The plan is to turn the cozy rustic lodge into a ski resort, which is news to the family selling it. Stephanie (Candace Cameron Bure) is an executive with no Christmas spirit who’s sent by her boss (and father) to look at a family-owned lodge their company has just acquired.
