So many mixed feelings about this movie! Some of Ilana's character traits hit a little too close to home for me, so I had trouble articulating all the thoughts in my head, not sure I'm ready to be that vulnerable on YouTube yet. 😂 Torrey DeVitto was amazing (all the actors were great), the wardrobe was perfection, and Santorini was stunning. Everything else... I don't know. Hallmark tried to show a messy couple who discovers maybe they don't have it all figured out and maybe they're too different, and I actually love that idea!! However, this is an 84 minute movie of the week which means there's not enough time to get messy AND THEN ALSO get cleaned up. Hallmark has messy characters in The Way Home and Ride, and I love that, but there's just not enough time in a movie to go as deep as you need to in order to resolve is all in a truly satisfactory way.

👑 From Hallmark Media's press release:
Torrey DeVitto (“Twas the Night Before Christmas,” “Chicago Med”), Yannis Tsimitselis (“Mary Mary Mary”) and Marina Sirtis (“Star Trek: Picard,” “Star Trek: The Next Generation”) “Love’s Greek to Me,” a new, original movie premiering Saturday, June 10 (8 p.m. ET/PT), on Hallmark Channel as part of the network’s June Weddings programming event. The movie shot partially on location on the island of Santorini.
Ilana (DeVitto) and her Greek boyfriend Mike (Tsimitselis) travel to Santorini for his sister
Alex’s (Katerina Konstas) wedding, where all his relatives immediately welcome her with open
arms. When Mike surprises Ilana by asking her to marry him at the same lighthouse where his
father proposed many years prior, his well-meaning – and overly enthusiastic – mother Athena
(Sirtis) shifts into overdrive, excited to be gaining another daughter. Ilana gets caught in the
vortex of Athena’s attempts to “help,” including purchasing a wedding gown for her future
daughter-in-law and booking the church…even though Ilana and Mike aren’t rushing to set a date
or plan on having a big fat Greek wedding. As Alex’s big day nears and the preparations ramp
up, Ilana becomes more uneasy about what the future may hold for her and Mike, leading her to
wonder if they’re truly meant to be together or if love is all Greek to her.
“Love’s Greek to Me” is from Hallmark Media. Cameron Johann is executive producer.
The movie is produced by Jeffery Beach and Phillip Roth. Producers are Kristina Kambitova and
Maria Komninos. Michael Robison directed from a script by Joie Botkin.
