"The Princess switch"
Watched English movie "The Princess switch".
This film is directed by Michael Rohl. Written by Robin Bernheim; Megan Metzge. Produced by Amy Krell; Brad Krevoy; Linda L. Miller. Music by Terry Frewer. Cinematography Viorel Sergovici, Lulu de Hillerin. The film stars Vanessa Hudgens, Sam Palladio, Nick Sagar, Alexa Adeosun, Robin Soans. The film runs for about 1 hour 40 minutes and was released in 2018. I watched it on Netflix on 2nd Dec 2021 with Aditi.
Stacy has broken up with her boyfriend of 3 years. Her friend and partner (Nick) enlists her in international bakers competition organized by Royal House of Belgravia. When she reaches there she discovers that she and Lady Margaret, Duchess of Montenaro (and fiancée of Crown Prince Edward of Belgravia) look exactly same. As the title suggests, there's a switch.
Vanessa portrays Stacy, a typical American girl and Dutchess Margaret, the royal. She does justice to both the roles and displays different personality traits without trying to be overly different. Sam plays the good hearted Prince who understands human angle. Nick plays a Baker who likes Stacy but loves Margaret. Royals are shown more acquiescing than obstructing. Little Alexa plays lovable child. Robin plays mysterious Santa who plays many minor but important roles.
Director has a firm grip on the story. He presents it in a matter of fact way. Apart from the fact that a country like Belgravia near north pole speaks English, there aren't many discrepancies.
It's Christmas! Love's in the air! All the wishes come true! With a little twist....
Two sequels of this movie are already released and I plan to watch them.
It's a feel good movie. A happy ending.
Recommend watching.
