I was watching this tearjerker of a movie in the Velvet channel, Listen to Your Heart, this afternoon and I loved it! One of the reasons that movie worked is because of the charming Ken Moran! He's cute and he can sing and he has those puppy eyes which are perfect for tearjerkers like this movie!
This is the first time I've heard of Alexia Rasmussen and I'm not even sure if she's really deaf, but she did a fantastic portrayal in the movie Listen to Your Heart. I was actually just channel surfing when I chanced upon the movie in the Velvet channel. Alexia was charming and sweet and smart in that movie - and trusting too - and really, it was heartbreaking to watch - because the lead couple, Alexia and Ken Moran looked really great together!
Channel surfing on TV can be fun sometime especially if you chance upon a movie or a show that touches you directly in the heart! Listen to Your Heart is one of the movies that fits that bill. I couldn't believe I was crying in some scenes of the movie! And the plot was actually even generic - deaf woman and musician boyfriend, bitchy mother who breaks them apart, musician boyfriend dies of cancer - melodrama at its best - but still very touching since you really keep rooting for the deaf woman.
Frank Watson plays the best friend of Ken Moran's character in the movie Listen to Your Heart. His character is pretty loyal to Ken too and stays with him till the end! Remember, this is a tearjerker! He plays a waiter in the movie by the way - both he and Ken do!
