DVD Review: Then Came You

Then Came You

(DVD Then)

 

Kudos to Kathie Lee Gifford! She proves that a woman of a certain age has plenty of life and creativity left in her, in real life and in movie-making. This humorous romance is at once a romp and a solace. Recently widowed Annabelle starts a planned around-the-world trip in rural Scotland. The innkeeper, Howard, is himself a widower and recently affianced to a good friend of his late wife’s, who is also an old flame. He and Annabelle develop a quirky but genuine affection for one another, which complicates matters. In addition, Annabelle has a side agenda that ultimately relates back to Howard!

 

In addition to playing the lead, Gifford wrote the script for Then Came You and also co-wrote the songs used in the film. It is directed by Adriana Trigiani and features actor/author/talk show host Craig Ferguson as Howard.

[If you enjoy this, you may also wish to try A Godwink Christmas (DVD) or the book American On Purpose by Craig Ferguson.]
