Review: The Christmas Candle (2013)

Woo! I'm finally back to reviewing! I'm sorry for this (many) months hiatus. Hopefully now, I'll be back to doing reviews more consistently. I have plenty of period dramas that I want to watch, so this will hopefully be the first in a long line of new reviews.

But anyways. I've heard a lot about The Christmas Candle lately, it being the Christmas season and all. I had heard that people seeing the movie (not the critics, however) liked the movie, that the costumes were good, and that it was an overall good, Christian movie. My parents and I went to see it in a theater that was playing it (which which had to do a little bit of driving to since it was only released in selected theaters) and we all watched it together one Sunday afternoon, which happened to be the first day of Advent.

Synopsis
Promotional Picure
When Gladbury's minister dies, Lady Camdon of Gladbury invites and persuades a young minister, David Richmond, to fill the position. Upon arriving in Gladbury, David learns of the Christmas Candle story: every twenty-five years, an angel blesses one candle (The Christmas Candle) which is given to one person who is granted a miracle. When David arrives and tries to modernize the town of Gladbury and disprove the story of the Christmas Candle, much to the chagrin of the townspeople, the Christmas Candle goes missing.

The New Layout! *Cue Fanfare*; Layout Version: Elizabeth Bennet

As promised, the new layout has arrived! This layout will probably stay up for a month or two (haven't decided which yet). I think this layout came out pretty well. So, allow me to begin the tour.


This month's theme is Elizabeth Bennet from Pride and Prejudice. I thought that since my pen name is Miss Elizabeth Bennet, I thought it was a good choice for the monthly/bimonthly theme. The header features multiple shots of Lizzy in Pride and Prejudice (1995), and the background is a forest background to match. I will be updating the Facebook header very soon so that it matches the blog's header.
