Conversations with God -The Movie is an excellent telling of the epic
journey to realization via the true life story and journey of Neale
Donald Walsch, which ultimately lead to the publishing of the
Conversations with God books. And epic it is. As Cate Montana, our
editor, said: "It's amazing what spirit has to put us through before
we're ready to listen."
For me it's great to watch a film about a true hero. Not some "hero" who
miraculously dodges 20,000 bullets to shoot everyone else, but someone
who wrestles with the self-bullets, and comes out to help millions (8
million + books sold!).All of the elements of great storytelling are in
this film. Fine acting, photography, direction, all combine to
wonderfully tell the story. And it's a story that I've gone back to in
my mind for days afterwards.
I highly recommend people getting out opening weekend to see this movie.
The film industry is a slave to Box Office Numbers. That's how they
determine what is hot and selling. You've heard it before - but here it
is again - if you/we want more films that are entertaining AND have real
substance, the only way to do that is get out and go.
On a more personal note - there are really two people behind this film.
The one in front of the camera (as acted by Henry Czerny) is Neale. The
one behind the camera is producer/director Stephen Simon. Stephen has
been on his own journey to get these films made for decades. Mark
Vicente - one of the BLEEP filmmakers - even took a film class 15 years
ago taught by Stephen about making mystical movies. Stephen has produced
spiritual movies, written books and articles about it, created a new way
of distributing films, via the Spiritual Cinema Circle, and finally made
this film. For his unrelenting passion to make this all happen, we
fellow filmmakers are all most grateful.
