Their feelings catch them off guard-never before has either been so excited about a first meeting. Not only do they find they have a lot in common, but there’s even a spark of romance in the air. Ashley and Dash reluctantly decide to share the car, but neither anticipates the wild ride ahead.Īt first they drive in silence, but forced into close quarters Ashley and Dash can’t help but open up. Though frantic to book a last-minute flight out of San Francisco, both are out of luck: Every flight is full, and there’s only one rental car available. Dashiell Sutherland, a former army intelligence officer, has a job interview in Seattle and must arrive by December 23. At one point, they wander through a snowy mountain forest in Sacramento.Dashing Through The Snow – Debbie MacomberĪshley Davison, a graduate student in California, desperately wants to spend the holidays with her family in Seattle. The dialogue goes to almost surreal lengths to draw attention to the fact that they're driving on the 5 (including a scene where the two main characters pointlessly discuss the history of the Interstate Highway System), almost as if they're proud of the job they've done at simulating the setting. And yet, the road they're traveling on is clearly a tiny, two-lane highway through the middle of nowhere in what is obviously British Columbia. One thing that did stand out to me was that the entire movie is set on the I-5 corridor, the largest and busiest freeway on the West Coast, with the characters traveling from San Francisco to Seattle. Do they fall in love at the end? Does he discover that she's not really a criminal? Does she turn out to actually be a criminal? Your guess is as good as or better than mine.
And it turns out the handsome dream-hunk she's sharing a rental car with on her trip up Interstate 5 is actually a government agent trying to bust her. I know it was about a woman called Ashley Harrison who, for some reason that escaped me, is suspected of being a drug smuggler or something. I'm not going to try to review this movie in earnest, because I've already admitted that I don't remember anything about it. They are all dreadful, and everyone knows that, but people keep watching them-including me, apparently.
That was an exaggeration, but I find myself overwhelmed by the proliferation of these things. I commented once before that at Christmastime, the Hallmark Channel "produces at least 600 movies a day". And, let me tell you, that doesn't narrow it down much. The reason it took so long is that all I knew about it was that it came on the Hallmark Channel at some point in the last month and a half and that it was a Christmas movie. It took me 20 minutes of searching to figure out what the name of this movie was so I could look it up on Rotten Tomatoes.
