To Have and to Hold (2019 TV Movie)
7/10
Intriguing drama about adult relationships
17 June 2020
Initially, I thought this was from the thriller genre, but halfway through it dawned on me, finally, that I was watching a drama about relationships - romantic & otherwise.

The dialogue is real and the four leads do a very good job playing the characters, as they attempt to pursue their individual dreams. The photography & interior decor for urban rural settings are superb, capturing the essence of both and very pleasant to drink in.

You'll see many films in this genre but this is certainly above average (there's nothing to nitpick here - this is solid filmmaking) and worth another viewing or three.

In 2020 - where quality screenwriting is to be found in TV series/TV movies and rarely in the clunky Hollywood releases, where the emphasis can be on star power and special effects - dramas like this one are rare to find indeed.
