Watch Big ol Goliath Giant Hollywood get passed up with this good little "David" one camera film!
29 September 2008
Warning: Spoilers
This is a good (tho not great) film. Yet it is a history making film! Why???

This is a tiny shoestring budget film that attracted a respectable national audience!- You small film maker wannabees- See the Sherwood Baptist website for details on how it was made!

The Kendricks (and the Sherwood Baptist Church) did wonderfully considering only one camera was used, and almost no one was paid. (Almost all persons who acted, directed, did production, etc. were unpaid volunteers!).

Hollywood moguls are you listening? - Some of you cultural elites who have forgotten your audience - Facing the Giants is a decently acted story - where you don't need to cover the kids' eyes (or ears). My picky fussy ten year old sports loving boy LIKES this story.

It's just a tad preachy, but still - I believed the story. And I'm on the lookout for other little David film companies to conquer more Hollywood Giants!

WAIT! What's that sound I hear? It's all the Hollywood media and audience analysts shuffling their data to figure out where they went wrong.

Hollywood DISCONNECTING itself from the real world - is the ultimate problem.

Watch for other little DAvids entering their shoestring budget films into the audience competition. Some will fail. But maybe they will scare Hollywood into - reconnecting with their audience!
