This Hallmark movie caught my attention as I was scrolling down the list of movie titles available to watch.
We have all heard the phrase "just my type" in reference to characteristics an individual possesses that appeal to us. However, in this case, for some reason the word "type" grabbed by attention and made me think of typing and typewriters.
I must have seen a trailer in the past for this movie because the main characters are writers. As a matter of fact, Martin Clayborne (the published author in the movie) writes all of his books on his old faithful typewriter. Somewhere in my mind, I must have recalled that tidbit of information.
The movie title, Just My Type, is a cute play on words for both reasons: the typewriter element and the attraction element.
One more thing, it never hurts to bring a beautiful puppy along to melt our hearts. Ernie (Briar, the golden retriever) is just my type!
Just My Type Movie Synopsis
Vanessa Sills (Bethany Joy Lenz) is a magazine writer in NYC. She is up for a promotion to senior lifestyle editor for the magazine, but she has heavy competition. Her next article is ready so she decides she has time for a short weekend break with her friend. When she recognizes the reclusive mystery writer, Martin Clayborne, in a small town gas station, she reconsiders her next article. Perhaps, she should replace it with an interview with Clayborne. After all, he hasn't given an interview in 5 years. Getting that interview might be just what she needs to further her career.
Martin Clayborne (Brett Dalton) is enjoying his solitude in a small town that respects everyone's anonymity and privacy. Marty is very active in the town activities. Even when he is mistaken for a gas station attendant, he jumps right in to pump gas. When Vanessa recognizes him as her favorite mystery writer, he avoids admitting his true identity by saying he "gets that all of the time". Of course, his dog, Ernie, who is featured on his book cover, is lying on the ground not too far away. In spite of his denial, it is pretty obvious to Vanessa that he is Martin Clayborne.
This is where the real fun begins! Vanessa starts finding ways to "bump" into Martin in hopes of convincing him to give her an interview, which he really does not want to do.
Perhaps, she is just the type to get him to open up and give that long
awaited interview!
