Item Description...
Outline Christy (Lauren Lee Smith) and the rest of the Cutter Gap community are just beginning to recover from a typhoid epidemic when a storm hits the rural alcove. In A New Beginning, the second of a two-part PAX production that began with A Change of Seasons, she gets stranded in the forest with Dr. MacNeill (Stewart Finlay-McLennan), and her fiancé David (James Waterston) risks life and limb to rescue her. Despite a loss of property, the town makes it through the storm relatively intact, but many have been changed by the experience. Christy, for instance, has come to see Dr. MacNeill in a new light, thus questioning her engagement to David. Will she marry the preacher or break off the engagement? Marriage is on the minds of several characters in this engaging recollection by the elderly Christy about her experiences as a young schoolteacher in the Smoky Mountains. Age 8 and older. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
Book Description
Set in early twentieth century Tennessee, this touching family film tells the story of a schoolteacher, Christy Huddleston, who learns lessons in loyalty, faith, and friendship when she attempts to force a small community into progressing with the outside world.
Considered an outsider by the residents of Cutter Gap, Christy is beloved as a teacher but begins to stir up conflict with her pleas for progress and stories of an outside world of skyscrapers and modern conveniences. When a free-spirited woman aviator crash lands in Cutter Gap, the attention is taken off Christy . . . until a series of robberies occur. Believing the thieves would never have come if it were not for the new road that Christy had built, the town unites against her. Faced with this series of setbacks, Christy contemplates returning home to North Carolina, but is persuaded to stay when she realizes she has much more to learn about her new friends . . . and herself!

Great movie for the whole family! Dec 18, 2007
Loved this series...it is hard to find wholesome movies to watch. Have shared with my Christian friends and they are thrilled with them also. Was a little disappointed that not all of the original actors returned, but this is a must see since the original left you not knowing who Christy married in the end.
Big Disappointment Oct 6, 2007
I, as other reviewers, was very excited when this movie came out. I wanted to see what happened after the series ended. It was a big disappointment. It did not follow what had happened in the series with a character that left Cutter Gap in the series being in the movie, along with basically the same story line of a student studying for college and his father objecting to it. There were only two highlights to the movie, the scenery and a few characters being played by the same actors from the series, such as Dr. McNeal and Opal. But if you are looking for the main characters (Christy, David, Alice, Fairlight, Ruby Mae) to be the same interesting, wonderful characters as they were in the series, you will be very disappointed. These actors are awful, the scenes boring, and the story lines unoriginal. If you want to know who Christy chose to marry, read the book or check out information about the "real" Christy as Catherine Marshall based the book on the true life stories of her mother.
Disapointing Aug 29, 2007
This series is a sorry replacement for the original. Aside from Stewart Finlay-McClelan, the acting is terrible! I would only reccomend watching the last episode for closure from the original, but that's it.
This is not Christy Aug 18, 2007
This movie just was not Christy if you want to see Christy watch the original series starring Kellie Martin now that's how it should be played. There was so much about this that I didn't like that I won't even waste time saying it all lol. I don't usually give bad reviews but this one deserves it and I would hate for someone to waste their time and money on this one. Just a bad rendition of the story imo and I agree with a lot of the other reviewers it just doesn't work at all.
