In the family-entertainment tradition of his multi-talented father Michael Landon, writer/director Michael Landon Jr. offered this made-for-cable frontier drama, adapted from a novel by Janet Oke. En route to her new home in the West, Marty Claridge (Katherine Heigl) suddenly finds herself a widow, with no roof over her head or means to support herself. At the gentle prodding of her settler friends Ben and Sarah Graham (Corbin Bernsen, Theresa Russell), Marty accepts the marriage proposal of taciturn widower Clark Davis (Dale Midkiff). It is strictly a business arrangement, with no romance or cohabitation involved; Marty will act as housekeeper to Davis and as teacher and surrogate mother for Clarks sullen nine-year-old daughter Missy (Skye McCole Bartusiak), and in return she will receive food and lodging. Pragmatists both, Marty and Clark assume that they will dissolve their marriage of convenience when the spring thaw comes...but that isnt how things turn out. Love Comes Softly first aired April 13, 2003, on the Hallmark Channel. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

For quite a few young billiard players ripping heli-copter flight green baize, which is the woven wool, or wool-nylon merge, used to protect the upper surface of any pool desk, is its worst problem.But, the horrifying reality of owning to justify a bad stroke towards bar plus billiards master cannot equate to the chill effect from loosing face in front of friends and / or girlfriends.Many years before this billiards supporters favorite dvd, \"The Color of Money, \" starring Jeff Cruise in addition to Paul Newman, numerous youngsters attempted to conquer adulthood while finding out play combine.
Even prior to Al Pacino\'s with \"Carlito\'s Way\", characters of which needed to make a statement to be masculine, in times sophisticated, but continually cool, were pictured when amateur or maybe professional share players.Movies, songs, and books, used this type of men when their aggressive but without doubt sensitive guy prototype, was particularly tempting for young men who wanted to associate to be able kind with male appearance.During the late 80s plus early 90s, young adults, in an effort to imitate their favorite icons and even achieve most of their tremendous appeal, have spent hours in discos holding a hardwood remain (cue) as well as playing steadily billiards games.By holding the larger circumference end of your cue, called \"the behind, \" a male people pointed your leather chalked rule attached upon cue\'s \"shaft, \" its smaller circumference ending, to your ball of their total choice -usually your white one-and upon choosing a specific angle with regards to strike, attempted ultimately to hit a shaded ball with the table\'s work surface.The robust feeling many people experienced while their click was prosperous, made up for all those long rehearsing hours.Indeed, even the most inexperienced of such young men managed, after multiple attempts, to succeed in striking some balls correctly on the pool tables\' cracks.
Hanging all around bars along with bonding in front of billiards platforms with acquaintances, college childhood friends and in the future business colleagues, is a practice gentlemen typically enjoy having; especially those who come out of western-type involving cultures.Moreover, the scene of a man possessing a cue and with a chalk involving each golf shot, to add to the tip\'s rubbing coefficient, is one of the most manly scenes your western type of woman just might think from; apart on the one when a man rides much motorcycle, like the famous Marlon Brando scene.
Based on habit, or even subconsciously, men usually select to have fun with a pool game along with practice ones own thinking plus sticking competencies surrounded by just other men\'s friends.Typically, women\'s feminine side is definitely portrayed as more delicate and thus, playing a game of pools which includes a female companion leads males to take up less harshly or bringing the role of a pool game\'s music teacher.Since this is the generally recognised stereotype, men are always appearing when conquerors along with women when conquered.Perhaps, the ancient game with control between sexes features found to the game from billiards, yet again, another program to signify its highly effective existence. |
