In addition, while taking core samples in the backyard of one of the houses where he thinks might be the site where the First Thanksgiving, he met the niece whom has inherited the house.

Plot

Source from «
Mary Ross, a successful attorney, has inherited a house in Plymouth, Massachusetts from her deceased aunt. Everett Mather is the town's local historian and has been working on discovering the true place of the first Thanksgiving his whole life. After years of searching, he thinks that the exact location is where Mary's house happens to sit. Everett keeps this information from the press, but word gets out. Mary isn't pleased when her house is turned into a tourist attraction. Everett proves his good intentions to Mary - that all he wants is for people of the U.S. to know where such an important historical event took place. Mary is enamored by Everett's love for his town. Her busy life as a lawyer is put on hold as she is taken in by not only Plymouth's charm, but Everett's as well. If the house is found to be the true location of the first Thanksgiving, Mary will have to decide if her old life is worth leaving for the love she's finally found.



Review

After watching the movie Class with Justin Bruening, I became a fan of his acting style. When I started watching The Thanksgiving House on PIXL on March 14, 2013, I did not realize that Justin was in this movie, until I spotted him. I was unable to watch the entire movie that first night, so I set my DVR to record the movie the next morning. When Emily Rose appeared on the screen, she was like a breath of fresh air, like an angel through the screen. Her acting is perfect, and the chemistry that she shared with Justin on this film was simply perfect. Lindsay Wagner is a favorite of my mothers, so having her on the movie just made it even that much better. Then walked in the father Bruce Boxleitner of whom I have seen in Scarecrow and Mrs. King (As Lee Stetson) among other TV shows and films.
This movie takes you on a journey where you feel sorry for Everett, and you root for Mary to give him a break.
