Media From the Heart by Ruth Hill

Thanks to Hallmark, I have another new artist to share with my readers today. I first came across Charla Bocchicchio in the cast list of Love, Fall, and Order, and thankfully in spite of a rather small role in that film, Hallmark opted to increase her role in one of their next movies.

Well, today is the premiere of Holiday Hearts on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, and I finally reach the pinnacle of promotional interviews for a movie that I am absolutely thrilled to see! One of the principal reasons I’m so anticipatory is due to this gentleman, Paul Campbell. I will admit that I was a bit slow to come to the “dark […]

Yet again, I am grateful for Hallmark’s dedication to bringing its viewers not only the best quality TV movies possible–especially at Christmas–but I always say that they find the “cream of the crop” young actors. And it just so happens that Payton Lepinski, young though she is, has been making movies for a couple of years now. I saw her […]
