I’m a child of the 70’s. Yes, that means I was a *child* in the 70’s, so I never really was into Abba much. I just remember bopping to ‘Dancing Queen’ at the school disco (wearing my Mum’s incredibly psychodelic maxi dress if I remember correctly) so I was …

This 2004 Lifetime Movie Network film, “It Must be Love”, starring Ted Danson and real life wife Mary Steenburgen, was as adorable romance to say the very least. The simple plot that captures the attention of the viewer is hard to ignore. It was also very interesting to see …
