Description

In the latest Love series installment, two years have passed since the tragic death of Missie's husband Willie. Missie is forced to move back to her father's ranch in Tettsford Junction and ends up adopting a teenage orphan girl who tests her faith and strength. Missie is compelled to defend the girl's orphan brother who is being mistreated by his adoptive family all the while fighting her own feelings of love for the town sheriff.

Cynics beware! From the first sweeping chords of the soundtrack, it's clear that Love's Unending Legacy will continue Janette Oke's heartfelt tales of love, pluck, and Christian faith in the days of pioneers. Missy LaHaye (Erin Cottrell, repeating the role from Love's Long Journey and Love's Abiding Joy) comes back to her father and stepmother after the death of her husband, only to find herself adopting a teenage girl named Elinda and sparring verbally with the town's handsome young sheriff. Missy can't understand Elinda's rebellious ways until she discovers why the girl has been smuggling food to a boy at a nearby farm. Fans of the Love series (which began with Love Comes Softly) will be untroubled by the movie's modern notions of childhood (to say nothing of some very modern necklines) and the supernatural cleanliness of this frontier town; period realism matters less than a sincere portrayal of Christian values. (Some viewers, however, may feel that the movie's earnestness curdles into mawkishness.) Also featuring staunch Dale Midkiff, who's played Missy's staunch father Clark Davis in all five of the Love movies to date. --Bret Fetzer

Love's Unending Legacy

I enjoyed this addition to the Love Comes Softly series just as much as I have all of them and wait eagerly for the one to follow Love's Unfolding Dream. I love them all and sit down to watch the whole series all in a row quite often. I have not read the books as movies are very often not like the books they are based on. I give every one in the series a five star rating but my favorite is Love's Long Journey.

Good story but not enough romance

I've watched all the previous movies, so was interested to see this one also. Like all the previous movies, though, there seems to be a certain lack of romance between the protagonists.

You could almost excuse the first movie, because that was the point of the title (that love comes softly), but all the movies have that strange situation where the protagonists suddenly realize they love each other in the last few minutes of the movie (well, mostly the women..the men are pretty clear about their romantic interests).

Other than that continuing strange aspect of these movies, I still enjoyed this movie, independent of the books (having not read any of them). A couple of sobbing scenes, but I can really imagine how tough life was for orphans in that (and this) time period.

I liked Dale Midkiff before discovering him in this series, and I have to say, he rocks as a dad in these movies. I'm really glad he didn't leave the series, like practically all the other actors/actresses (for whatever reasons).

Excelente

Esta pelicula es muy buena, al igual que todas las anteriores de la serie.

Esta es una serie que vale la pena verla completa.

Love's Unending Legacy

I absolutely love this whole series. Janette Oke is the best. It's been quite a long time since an inspiring series like this has come along. I really like Michael Landon, Jr.'s style. He makes you believe you are back in the time of horse and wagon. I think we need more of this type of movie today. Get back to basics. The story from start to finish keeps you drawn in. You're always wondering what will happen next. I would recommend this movie and the entire series to anyone who likes a good old fashion love story. I will watch it again and again. The charactors fit very well into the story.

Love's Unending Legacy

One of the 6 in a series bases on Janet Okie's books. Don't miss this series
