Date with Love (2016 TV Movie)
6/10
Worth watching if only because of Shenae Grimes-Beech, Andrew Walker & Bailee Madison
23 November 2022
I was reminded of this movie when I watched a new movie with Shenae Grimes-Beech called When I Think About Christmas. It was her first Hallmark movie in the 6 years since Date With Love which I remembered with some fondness. In this earlier movie, she plays Alex Allen, a famous movie star who needs some good publicity. She accepts a student's request that she be his high school prom date as a publicity stunt. Sadly, the student who proposed wasn't very popular and was blind to the feelings of his best friend Heidi, played by the very cute and talented Bailee Madison. Andrew Walker plays his teacher Vincent Walsh and Andrea Brooks plays assistant Paige Sumner

I enjoyed this movie because of Shenae Grimes-Beech. And Andrew Walker went on to become one of Hallmark's biggest stars. These stories are basically a variation of the popular trope of a Royal falling in love with a commoner. This was fun, even if the prom kid got on my nerves a bit.
