The Wedding Veil Journey (2023 TV Movie)
2/10
Don't crash a country then treat the people horribly.
5 July 2023
I somewhat enjoyed the other films but I found this one to be quite insulting to the people of Greece. They cast the Greek people in a very negative light and generally seemed bored to even be in Greece at all. First of all, the lady tried to get them to their accommodations was treated as being shady with another purpose. They called it a 'shakedown'. The orphan boy was initially treated as a wily scoundrel. His headmaster got a heap of American virtue signalling. The girl at the restaurant was accused of stealing the veil more than once to find her own love interest. And by the way, you do not put an antique wedding veil on a plastic hanger with no cover over your door. Even if the lace is obviously machine laser cut. Rolls eyes. AND, the American chef had to teach a local Greek guy how to make Greece's national dish. Quite the holier than though attitude, especially when you consider the Italian movie, where the Italian families and their culture were treated so respectfully. The only redeeming quality is that they filmed it in one of the most beautiful countries in the world.
