1st Movie: "Irish Wish"
馃憢馃槉Greetings everyone! I hope you have delightful Christmas celebrations filled with joy.
Today, I will watch "Irish Wish," directed by Janeen Damian, on Netflix. The film is 94 minutes long, set in the United States, and in English.
Plot:
Maddie Kelly has been secretly in love with Paul Kennedy,
the author who she has been editing for the past year and whose plot choices and
writing she has improved. She has told her mother but not her best friends,
Emma and Heather. Just before Maddie is about to tell him about her feelings,
Paul asks her to help him write his next novel. He meets Emma and they quickly
develop a mutual attraction.
Three months later, Paul and his three childhood friends fly with him to his Irish home so he and Emma can get married. Maddie puts her
feelings aside to join Heather as a bridesmaid. At luggage reclaim, Maddie argues
with Englishman James Thomas over his bag, as it is identical to hers. While
stuck at the lost luggage office, she insists that the others go on without
her. Maddie must travel by bus to the Kennedy house; on board, she exchanges
banter with James who is a wildlife photographer.
The three friends, Paul, and his brother Kory go to a lake
for a picnic. They decide to take out two rowboats, but Maddie stays behind,
feeling like a fifth wheel. She comes across a wishing bench, and a fairy
appears as she is saying she wishes Paul was marrying her. After a strong wind
blows, Maddie falls back, waking up as the bride-to-be. With her dream seeming
to come true, she starts to doubt things. First, a bike ride Paul proposes to
her does not work as she is unskilled, so Emma takes her place. Then Maddie is
expected to wear an heirloom wedding dress rather than the one she brought.
Hearing and seeing the fairy, Maddie chases after her and
falls into James's Triumph TR convertible. Because of the fairy, he has no
recollection of their meeting, but Maddie remembers. The hired wedding
photographer has quit, and Paul's mother thanks Maddie for finding James as a
replacement. Having just discovered the sheep-shearing event he was meant to
shoot got canceled, he accepts.
That night, as Paul gets into bed with Maddie while she is
asleep when he puts his hand on her, it startles her so she punches him. He is
not fully recovered by morning, so she goes with James alone to seek
picturesque spots for the wedding photos. On their return, a tree goes down
from the storm and blocks the road back, so Maddie and James seek shelter in a
nearby pub. They spend the evening together playing darts, having a pint, and
dancing. They get back just in time for the rehearsal, where the fairy, who is
revealed to be Saint Brigid of Ireland, startles Maddie.
Maddie soon realizes that her real soulmate is James, not
Paul. On the morning of the wedding, James can tell she is sad, but she does
not admit it. When Maddie tells the priest about her wish to Saint Brigid, he
says she is mischievous, not giving people what they want, but what they need.
Maddie sees Emma before the ceremony and confirms her
feelings for Paul, then promises to try to fix it. When it is her turn to walk
down the aisle, she enters, wearing regular clothes, and suggests the wedding
not go on as they are not in love. Paul jumps James and they fight, as he sees
them talking earlier on the grounds, blaming him for her change of heart.
James abruptly leaves, and Maddie follows. He feels badly for being partly to blame for what happened. They kiss, but due to the circumstances, he drives off. Maddie returns to the wishing bench and asks Saint Brigid to take back her wish, so time rewinds again. Paul and Emma marry, and after the reception, Maddie tells him she will not be editing his books without being credited as co-writer. She then finds James on a bench near the pub and he now remembers her from the airport and bus, so they can restart.
