huggibear Yes, love is just a four letter word, but it can be much more than just a word. It can be a thought, it can be a spoken word, it can be a focus and it can be an on purpose choice of creation if we all knew what love meant to us. To me, love is the way I feel or the way I choose to deliberately feel. But about the movie....Clever and well acted! I loved the script as well. Two lawyers battling against each other in the same divorce case and happening upon love? Love and divorce or love and love? Which one will win both sides of this equation? You'll have to watch and find out for yourself. However, I believe this movie should be rated a little higher than it is. It deserves better! The acting was great and the story was sweet.

ksf-2 Barry Bostwick (Brad, from Rocky Horror)... and Donna Mills (Knots Landing) are Martin and Margot, getting divorced. This Hallmark film is mostly about their attorneys, Ken and Emily, who meet at a wedding, and see sparks. (have you ever heard such loud birds??) The other big name in here I recognize is Mariette Hartley.. she's been around forever but honestly her biggest role I can think of is the film commercial. Hartley is Emily's mom, who lives down the street. Of course, as expected, there is the sparring between the two clients, and even between their attorneys, who now have different priorities. We watch the banter and bickering, but I'm surprised that such professional attorneys would let their personal feelings flare up in court. I expected the judge to fine them for contempt. kind of a chick flick. I appreciated showing how the groom gives up his circle of friends and his man-cave, and the same idea with the chicks. Can the divorcing couple work things out? how about their lawyers? catch it on Hallmark! No plot holes. no big car chases.Directed by Harvey Frost, who has directed a lot of cable, and oddly enough, Beverly Hills 90210. Story by Jill Blotevogel. Not a lot of info given on her, but she has written a lot of stuff for television.

edwagreen A very satisfying comedy film featuring a girl and guy who meet at the wedding of their best friends. They are truly a perfect match for each other until they walk into court as divorce attorneys handling the opposite side of a divorce case.The film deals with how their handling of the case affects their relationships.This is basically a story of love, conflict, divorce and redemption.This is told along a backdrop of the true California beach scene.The couple who is divorcing after 30 years are being described as a retirement divorce. You hear so much of the husband retiring and the marriage faltering as he is around more often now at the home. This was a very interesting plot and is well resolved by film's end.

Amy Adler Emily (Teri Polo) goes to the wedding of a close friend. A dedicated divorce lawyer, she doesn't really want to catch the bouquet but it gets tangled up in her hair and dress. She, therefore, meets the gentleman who grabbed the garter, Kenton (Robert Mailhouse). The two exchange a few words and soon take a shine to one another. They decide to leave the reception and go for a walk on the beach. Once there, they exchange brief autobiographies, except career information, and engage in some pretty fervent kisses. The evening ends. A day later, Emily and Kenton meet again, with less zeal. Both arrive at the courtroom and find themselves representing opposing clients in a potentially messy divorce. Horrors! Naturally, they bicker and conclude that ethical complications will keep them from pursuing any personal relationship. But, with such a strong beginning, will they be able to keep their feelings on a strictly professional level? Meanwhile, their clients (Donna Mills and Barry Bostwick) are having second thoughts about divorce. Does anyone care to put a wager on the possible triumph of love, twice over? This is a nice film for those ever-hungry romcom fans. The four principal actors do a fine job, although Mailhouse is a bit smug from time to time. The sets, costumes, production, and direction are also above average. As for the script, most fans of love stories adore a nice, romantic tug of war and this one will not disappoint them. If you are a dedicated watcher of comic tales of affection, try to catch this one on the tube. It will more than satisfy you and make for a contented evening at home.
