THE RUSSELL GIRL on CBS - Pictures and Promo
And my love of Hallmark Hall of Fame movies continues this Sunday, January 27th, with a whole new movie, THE RUSSEL GIRL. The movie stars Amber Tamblyn who plays Sarah Russell, a 23-year-old aspiring medical school student who visits her loving family to share some important news, but instead finds herself attempting to finally confront a difficult period from her past.
I have been a fan of Amber Tamblyn ever since Joan of Arcadia, and am looking forward to see her in a new TV movie.
In addition to Amber Tamblyn, The Russell Girl also stars Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Jennifer Ehle, Tim DeKay, Henry Czerny, and Paul Wesley.
Watch the promo and more pictures below, and don't forget to watch The Russell Girl January 27th at 9 pm on CBS.
Synopsis: Sarah Russell's rare visit from Chicago to her small hometown is a welcome surprise to her parents (Mastrantonio and DeKay), her 21-year-old brother, Daniel (Daniel Clark), and her former boyfriend, Evan (Paul Wesley). Sarah decides to withhold the true reason for her homecoming after an old conflict resurfaces during an uncomfortable encounter with Lorraine Morrisey (Ehle), who lives across the street from the Russells with her husband, Howard (Henry Czerny), and two teen-aged boys (Ben Lewis, Max Morrow). Sarah's sudden presence has a debilitating effect on Lorraine, who rebuffs Sarah's attempts to make amends. However, Sarah musters the courage to keep trying, knowing that she must finally deal with her past as a means of being able to face her future. It takes time for Lorraine to put the past behind her and to grasp that forgiving Sarah will not only ease Sarah's burden but also her own.

Who is singing the song at the end of the Hallmark movie - The Russell Girl
are they going to replay the russell girl or can i watch it on line. they interrupted the whole show for the news. please let me know.
What is that song that was played when sara was driving home at the first of the show.
I am also wondering about the song at the end during the credits. Who sings that?
i don't know the song at the end of the credits, but the song playing when sarah is driving home is called "dark road" by annie lennox, i think.
it sounded like rascal flatts? but i can't figure out which song it was!
I am also wondering if the movie will be replayed somewhere.
It also sounded like Donovan - a shot from the '60s.
I also want to know if I can watch online or when this show my replay. I had set the show to tape and something happened and I only got half the show.
I set the show to tape the last 15 minutes didn't tape so I didn't see the conclusion. I was so disappointed:) I really enjoyed what I did see. Will this be shown again on another channel? Can this movie be purchased?
I also want to know if you can watch online or when it is replaying?
I also would like to know if this movie will be replayed. Because of President Hinckley’s passing the movie was interrupted.
Thanks
the dvd will be available to be purchased at any hallmark store on the 1st of february.
What is the name of the song that starts out "I had a dream" that they played near the end?
The song at the ens was sung by the country band Rascall Flatts
I would like to know if this movie will be replayed or can I watch it another way our program was interupted and the finish of the movie was never shown
Thanks
I don't know if they will air it again, but you can purchase the DVD on February 4th on the Hallmark online store.
I too want to see the ending of the movie. My VCR tape ran out and I missed the last 15 minutes. Talk about a disappointment. I went on line tonight to see if I could read what happened to Sarah. Please replay the movie soon or send me a message and let me know what happened. PLEASE
Hello--
I was wondering if anyone knew what the song was when she was driving after annie lennox' "dark road" plays? The lyrics go something like "I'm doing fine one step at a time by the way. Its you on mind. Its you on my mind" or something along those lines. I've been searching frantically for it to no avail! Please help!
Thanks
When will The Russel Girl be airing again. They interrupited the whole show with the news.
I doubt if the artist who sang the song at the end (and during the credits) is Rascal Flatts, especially since the vocalist was female. I just sampled three of Rascal Flatts albums and none of their songs sound like the one we're searching for.
If anyone has purchased the DVD, please let us know if the artist is mentioned and if she performs it on the video. Thanks!
The song is "So Still" by Jeff Beal - composed for the movie. They are working on a I-Tunes release of the song.
LuAnn is correct here more information below.
The other song people were asking about is a Schuyler Fisk song called, "Waking Life" which is on her MySpace page.
Closing Song from the Hallmark Hall of Fame Movie "The Russell Girl" aired Sunday 1/27/2008 on CBS
"SO STILL" (Title of Sarah's song..at the end and end credits of the
movie)
written by Jeff Beal sung by Beth Thornley
A breath, a hush, a mem'ry,
they call out a name.
I know this place,
'cause it feels the same, the same.
I give away the silence,,
I breathe, let go of the past.
I hold so still,
I have to make this moment last....
Today, I start, all over,
just breathe, let go of the past...
I know my way,
comin' home at last, at last,
A breath, a hush, a mem'ry,
I breathe, remember your touch
I hold so still
Now I know what I can trust....
Looking forward to an iTunes Release.
[...] isn’t much to watch on television this Sunday (except Hallmark Hall of Fame’s movie, The Russell Girl), so why not try something new. TV movies have been getting better and better and I have already [...]
I'm also looking for the song played in the beginning of the movie, when she's driving and almost crashes to the side rails on the road "It's you on my mind".
beautiful song, would love to find it, thanks!
its called dark road ( Annie Lennox - DARK ROAD )
Mara - the song you are looking for is Schuyler Fisk "Waking Life" from Penelope Soundtrack 2008. Lyrics are dated 2007:
Waking life
There’s an anchor that’s pulling on my heart,
And it’s deep in the water but it can’t take me down.
Tracin’ faces with fingers and we’re just the same as we were,
Just our eyes never found what I see now,
That my feet are on the ground.
Chorus:
Cause I'm not lost, just looking for footprints.
I’m taking it, one step at a time and I’m getting by.
By the way,
It’s you on my mind,
It’s you on my mind.
And here comes the night pulling puppet strings on my heart again,
Shows me all of this time I’ve been blind to this waking life.
Now I...see it everywhere.
Chorus:
Cause I'm not lost, just looking for footprints,

Yeah.
And I’m takin it, one day at a time and I’m gettin by.
By the way.
You’re still on my mind,
You’re still on my mind.
I...can’t...see...you but I know you’re here,
I, know you’re here.
I, know you’re here.
I’m not lost, just looking for footprints.
I’m taking it, one step at a time and I’m getting by.
By the way.
I’m not lost, just looking for footprints.
And I’m takin it, one step at a time and I’m gettin’ by.
And you’ll still on my,
Oh you’re still on my mind,
You’re still on my mind,
Oh you’re still on my mind,
Oh you’re still on my mind.

The lyrics is:
A breath, a hush, a mem’ry,
they call out a name.
I know this place,
’cause it feels the same, the same.
I give away the silence,,
I breathe, let go of the past.
I hold so still,
I have to make this moment last….
Today, I start, all over,
just breathe, let go of the past…
I know my way,
comin’ home at last, at last,
A breath, a hush, a mem’ry,
I breathe, remember your touch
I hold so still
Now I know what I can trust….
