(Some ambiguity in this department could have generated some drama, but this film is refreshingly too straightforward for such plotting). She adorably embraces playing Bryce’s girlfriend and never makes it feel like she is acting the role. Maslow is perfectly adequate in the role, appearing shirtless as often as the script by Robert Windom allows, but he is not very convincing as a good ol’ Southern boy.įar more impressive is Ciara Hanna as Madison. dream, but missing out on reality (and true love) because he always puts work first. Stars Fell on Alabama casts Bryce in what Hollywood agents might call the Tom Cruise role. Madison, who is waiting to hear back about landing a leading role, agrees because she wants to get out of town to escape her on-again/off-again musician boyfriend, Zane (Zebedee Row). The couple are fake dating because Bryce refuses to mix business with pleasure. When he returns home to Willow Valley, AL, for his 15th high school reunion, he takes Madison along as his girlfriend. Bryce Dixon (James Maslow, of Big Time Rush fame) is an agent in Hollywood who represents rising star Madison Belle (Ciara Hanna). The story is right out of a romance novel. Sure, cynics can scoff, and haters are gonna hate, but this film is just made for pre-teen girls or adults who cuddle up and watch Lifetime. This predictable romance may lean into its genre conventions, but it is so aggressively wholesome that resistance is almost futile. Stars Fell on Alabama is as gentle and likable as the romantic country song that gives this modest, charming film its title. Starring Ciara Hanna, James Maslow, Jason Burkey
