Raja Gosnell and Alicia Joy LeBlanc’s Gun and A Hotel Bible, based on the original play Gun and a Motel Bible by screenwriters and stars Bradley Gosnell and Daniel Floren, dissects and analyses the meaning of morality through religious abstraction, and Christian doctrines. What begins as an academic debate between theological conflictions quickly descends into the problems of faith through moments of nihilism.
A young man named Pete experiences a crisis of faith when he plans to murder his adulterous girlfriend by checking into the same hotel, armed with a gun, an impulsive plan and self-doubt. Pete’s plan comes to a halt when the personification of his hotel bible, a man named Gideon, tries to talk him round from the act he’s about to commit.
It’s always interesting to see how texts are adapted from theatre onto the screen. From Una to the excellent Ma Raimey...

Filmmakers Raja Gosnell & Alicia Joy LeBlanc team up to tell this story of infidelity and anger. "Can Gideon sway Pete before he pulls the trigger? When all hope is lost, can the lost find hope?" It is a "provocative film" about a man on the verge of a violent act, and his encounter with a personified hotel bible. Starring Bradley Gosnell, Daniel Floren, and Mia Marcon. This seems like a compelling idea for a play, built around the incredible power of words to help calm people down. But it also seems to be a bit too obsessed with the bible and its words. But if they do make a difference, why not. Official...
