The storyline reported by USA Today: Pickler will portray Laurel, an "executive from Chicago who heads to Memphis with hopes of nabbing an old family-owned bank. Laurel's ex, Clay, who promotes local musical acts has bigger aspirations. Despite, Laurel's steadfast focus, she's reminded by Clay of their time as performers who were once on the cusp of fame. With what we presume will include a little holiday magic, Laurel shifts her focus to music once again."

"Christmas At Graceland" will film at Elvis Presley's former home in Tennessee, according to USA Today, and will, of course, include Elvis Presley music!


My Take:

Oh, "I'm all Shook Up"!

We first learned Kellie Pickler was doing a Hallmark movie at the Winter TCA Event. It is exciting now to have a title and a basic idea of the storyline. "I Can't Help Falling in Love" with the plans for this upcoming Christmas movie! Kellie Pickler is just as sweet and charming as she can be; I can only imagine this movie will be just as delightful to see!

Can't you just hear Elvis singing softly in the background... "Santa Bring My Baby Back to Me?"

Please share your thoughts on this movie below and your favorite Elvis song! I've always loved "Heartbreak Hotel," "Love Me Tender," and his version of "How Great Thou Art."

Blessings! Net
