My Dreams of You (TV Movie 2024)

My Dreams of You (TV Movie 2024). 1h 24m | TV-G

“The movie puts me in mind of a cross between In My Dreams (2014) and Ghosts of Christmas Always (2023). The first is obvious and probably better than this movie. The mechanics behind the Dream making and the ensuing screw ups echoes the latter movie. It is this totally unusual approach that lifts this movie slightly above the same old Saturday night stuff on Hallmark.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;m not familiar with either of the leads. Someone really screwed up the credits on this website because Sklyer Samuels is listed at this writing as Emily. She is actually Grace.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMost of the acting is decent, at least for the real characters. The supernatural characters maybe not so much, but the whole operation behind the dream making has a Bush League feel. They are using VHS tapes for storage. The office has a pedestrian feel and maybe dated also.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSamuels and Kapil Talwalkar have chemistry. Their characters and relationship are appealing and for me this was where any hook was.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt seemed to me like the theme of chasing your dreams was pushed a little too hard, where u0026quot;dreamsu0026quot; in this case is like u0026quot;hopes and dreamsu0026quot; rather than what you do while asleep. Itu0026#39;s not uncommon for Hallmark, but it can be carried a little too far. I thought it interesting that the story set up the idea of Grace as a struggling artist barely making ends meet, even to the point of having to borrow money. But when she went chasing Michael she seemed to have a lot of money to spend.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMy rating acknowledges the somewhat unusual story and quirkiness of it, but Iu0026#39;m not sure if this is one I will want to watch again.”
