1
00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: And Amanda jam Nation.

2
00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:08,480
Speaker 2: I've found this woman on TikTok who does She's a comedian,

3
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 2: but she does these fantastic reels of a Hallmark movie

4
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:12,960
Speaker 2: in a minute.

5
00:00:13,119 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 1: Now.

6
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:17,920
Speaker 2: A Hallmark movie has all these particular tropes, but they're

7
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,120
Speaker 2: always the same the movie, well, any kind of movie.

8
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 2: It's often seen on midday movie, but you can probably

9
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 2: stream them anytime you like. And the trope is often

10
00:00:28,360 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 2: busy woman, big job in the city, strangely unfulfilled, but

11
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 2: propelled to just keep working, be busy. Something drags her

12
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,839
Speaker 2: to the country and while she's there, just on a

13
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 2: quick flying visit, she meets a guy, falls in love

14
00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 2: with the small town, and decides that she can use

15
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 2: her skill set to help save the town. There's about

16
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 2: six or seven that this woman does that are just hilarious. It's,

17
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 2: as I said, the well worn trope. Here's just one

18
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:55,760
Speaker 2: of them.

19
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: I don't have time for a phone call from a stranger.

20
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 1: I've got too much big fancy work to do. You're

21
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 1: in the big fancy city. I have my big fancy

22
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: job before I have dinner at a big fancy restaurant

23
00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: with my big fancy fiance who pays no attention to me.

24
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,400
Speaker 1: But what nameless assistant. I've just inherited a pumpkin patch

25
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 1: in a town called Fallington. You think that maybe this

26
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 1: would be a good place for us to put in

27
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:19,640
Speaker 1: a new factory. I'm here. Oh hi, I'll walk through

28
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: the pumpkin patch. Oh, list in, Luke or whatever your

29
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 1: name is. I don't have time. I've got a really

30
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: important job to do back in the big city, and

31
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 1: I've only got a couple of days here. Never knew

32
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: they had a smell. Your child, who wears glasses and

33
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: lost her mom several years ago, has now lost the

34
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: use of her legs. Luke, I had an idea. Listen,

35
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: we just need to sell enough cider for the Fallington

36
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: Harvest Festival and then Sarah can get her surgery. Oh wait,

37
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: how did he find out? It is why I originally

38
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:48,240
Speaker 1: came to Fallington. But then I met you and Sarah

39
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 1: and everyone else in Fallington, and and I smelled this

40
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 1: can't go back to the big city. Now, I guess

41
00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 1: I'm Fallington in love with Fiata. Now that Sarah can

42
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: walk again after only a couple of days, lest the

43
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: three of us dance together because I'm her new mommy.

44
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 2: It's always She meets an uncomplicated country man and she

45
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 2: realizes that she's been missing out on the essence of life.

46
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 1: If you johny Galki in there, that would be great, brilliant.

47
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 2: There's a thousand of those tropes. And then this was

48
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 2: actually that's its send up. This was actually the midday

49
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 2: movie on Friday. It's called a country romance. Here's the synopsis.

50
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,919
Speaker 2: Girl works in advertising in the city, has a big

51
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,839
Speaker 2: pitch she's preparing for in a week. She loves a job,

52
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 2: but makes a comment to a colleague that the city

53
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 2: just doesn't connect with her. She's often making apple pie

54
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,359
Speaker 2: for everyone in the office because she's from an orchard

55
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,359
Speaker 2: in the country. Seconds later, her dad calls to say

56
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 2: he wants to sell the orchard hasn't been the same

57
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 2: since her mom died all those years ago, because her

58
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,839
Speaker 2: mom also loved baking. There's a potential buyer who wants

59
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: to come and see it, but the dad's way on holiday.

60
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 2: She has to go back to the country to meet

61
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 2: the potential buyer and do the paperwork for her dad.

62
00:02:58,240 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 2: She arrives back at her old house and she meets

63
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 2: her little girl who's swinging on her old swing in

64
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 2: the backyard. Conveniently, the little girl's handsome uncle, who appears

65
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,280
Speaker 2: to be single, comes to collect her to do her homework.

66
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 2: Even more convenient they live next door. Alas she meets

67
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 2: the buyer, he wants to turn the orchard into a hotel.

68
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 2: Of course, you can guess what happens next. Yet she

69
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,639
Speaker 2: sells up lives happily ever after in the city, hating

70
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 2: the country forever so good.

71
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: That's why I make sure I get out of here

72
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:28,119
Speaker 1: as early as I possibly can. Because whyn't you start

73
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: watching that midday movie?

74
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 2: You suck it forever You're stuck
