CHALET GIRL -- THE MOVIE

Went to a preview screening of Chalet Girl this week. Am very happy to report that it is delightful. It could  so easily have been cheesier than a tartiflette, but it is in fact quite lovely -- a genuinely feelgood, Friday night flick, with everyone falling in love in the end. It's on general release to the public next February, but it should boost interest in ski holidays in general (who doesn't want to find love on the slopes?) and chalet holidays in particular. St Anton is the setting -- the St Anton Museum acts as the exterior of the chalet in question, with the interior of the chalet being a set build in Garmisch -- but it is not overtly St Anton; no signs of the Krazy Kanguruh or the Mooserwirt. All good stuff though, so don't miss it! It has The Chic Chalet Guide seal of approval.
