A New Must-See Movie Springs Hope and Inspiration
From their site:
Press Release
July 28th, 2009
Five & Two Pictures is proud to announce the upcoming release of a very special film entitled “The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry.”
Coming to theaters Sept. 18, “The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry” is an inspiring film for viewers from 8 years old to 80 years old. Best buddies Dustin (Jansen Panettiere), Albert (Frankie Ryan Manriquez), and Mark (Allen Isaacson) are twelve year old boys looking forward to a summer of fun in 1970. When Dustin mows the lawn of seventy-five year old Jonathan Sperry (Gavin MacLeod), a man he has seen at church, a unique friendship develops. What happens the rest of this summer is something Dustin and his friends will never forget!
Jansen Panettiere, the younger brother of Hayden Panettiere of “Heroes” fame, and Robert Guillaume also co-star.
Actor Kirk Cameron says “‘The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry’ moved me with its message about how one faithful man can make a difference in the lives of many. I recommend this inspiring movie for any family to watch together.”
“The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry” has a very unique marketing plan behind the film where churches sponsor the film as a local outreach in theaters. The movie is to open in over 200 theaters nationwide in Sept.
Popular actor Gavin MacLeod, made famous from his roles in “The Mary Tyler Moore Show” and “The Love Boat,” is a devout Christian and said it was a privilege to play this role. “I have been acting for over 60 years,” Gavin says. “I made my first movie in the mid-1950’s and have worked with some of the biggest stars in show business – Cary Grant, Gregory Peck, Tony Curtis, Clint Eastwood, Steve McQueen, Bing Crosby – the list goes on and on,” he adds. “I also had the opportunity to be in two of the most popular TV shows in the history of television playing a newsman in ‘The Mary Tyler Moore Show’ and the captain of ‘The Love Boat.’ Playing the role of Jonathan Sperry is the most meaningful project I have ever done.”
The film’s Director and Producer Rich Christiano (who also made “Time Changer”) and his team are hoping that churches and groups will jump on board. “Ninety-nine percent of the movies that come out in the theater have almost nothing to do with the Lord and Christian themes. I think this movie can encourage a lot of people during difficult times. They will laugh, be encouraged and touched.
Actor Pat Boone called “The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry” a “heartwarming experience for the entire family.”
“The church normally just plays defense,” Christiano adds. “Hollywood will do something we don’t like, and we complain about it. We need to go on the offense! Let’s put forth films that can be positive for our society like ‘The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry.’ If viewers will give this movie a chance, I think they are going to pleasantly surprised.

Glenn Beck - War games and American collapse simulation

(I tried to embed, but it would not work...)
My commentary: I have not been able to hear this yet as my laptop speakers are broken - I have this to say and will be posting something soon... We (most intelligent Americans) KNEW Obama was at least "partially" Muslim, and I use both terms loosely because I do not know enough about his faith to say if he was deeply radical or not, but would you think even if he was sympathetic to Muslims that he would allow them to influence his decisions? There are a portion of them who desire to destroy USA as we knew it, so think McFly! For once, think about this Americans and understand even if he means no ill-will for our country (and I am thinking he may in some way for some reason) those who influence him do. The compromises made by him to maintain his positions in the political system world-wide put OUR very country at risk for deterioration and terrorism. When freedom loving home-grown AMERICANS standing for the basic principles we were founded on are considered TERRORISTS - WAKE UP and smell the terrorists overtaking our country because if they call US terrorists first, then in their minds, they have a free pass to walk all over our rights. AMERICANS have EVERY right to stand for their country and defend her and our freedoms as we have forever. SO - to anyone trying to take that from us, watch out, we have never lost. :0) We accept anyone from anywhere to become a part of us, we help them , we heal them, we pray with them, we live, we love, we disagree, but we are the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!
Join or die!
