Romance with a Twist (2024 TV Movie)
8/10
Beautiful
28 January 2024
The story is a little rough at times. Rough outline, it sounds like another one of those where the leads get thrown together to do a project, and more specifically to do a performance. You could call this a dance performance in the air. But it starts out rough. Olivier Renaud does everything he can to make his character, Bennet, a spoiled, arrogant former Olympian with no tact whatsoever. What I found more disturbing was how much real hurt was inflicted on Luna. But she's no snowflake. She stood up to it and gave some back.

There are some ups and downs for just about all the major characters. Some of the actors handled that better than others, with Jocelyn Hudon being one of the better. Through all their practices and rehearsals, it didn't seem like this could become anything worth watching. But if you don't watch anything else in this movie, you have to watch their performance. I have no idea how much either of the stars did on the silks. Probably not a lot except the still shots, but the performance was beautiful. The stunt doubles should get first page credit in this movie. (Michel Bray, Emma Carrothers and Edio Silvio).

The ending was sweet too.
