Princess Cut {Review}

Who would have know that my son would grow into a young person so passionate about everything movie production.  In fact we now remain seated in theatres and read through the credits!  It's quite amazing what you can learn about the movie industry from a twelve year old. We were very excited to see Princess Cut as it was produced by homeschool graduate Paul Munger and Watchman Pictures.

The Story
Princess Cut is the beautiful unfolding love story of a young woman named Grace who has been with her boyfriend Stewart for fifteen months and is dreaming of  the perfect proposal, by her knight as he presents her with a princess cut diamond ring declaring his unfailing love for her. She however learns that true love waits for the perfect time along with some painful life lessons along the way.

As her dreams of the perfect romance fall away to ashes around her, two young men walk into her life - Jarred and Clint.  Two very different young men with two very different hearts and backgrounds.  One wants to get to know her and her family and change the trajectory of his life the other is interrested in a fast romance with intimacy and little else.  Who will win her heart and the love of her family and how long before Grace sees the truth?

Through the many turns that life takes Grace learns that discovering your soul mate and remaining true to your heart is a narrow road but one that is well worth the wait.

Princess Cut  is an old-fashioned romance that emphasises getting to know someone well before entering into a deeper relationship with them.  It encourages young people to trust their parents and enjoy being home.

Over All I thought ...
Princess Cut  is an old-fashioned conservative romance with a Hallmark flare.  As a family we loved  the humour (Little brother Drew advertising his sister in the local paper.  Boy did we laugh at the outcome of that choice!) and the story line.  It was wonderful to know we could watch this movie without fear of bad content or wrong morals.
