How sad that he doesn't speak of that film. And especially how sad that Hollywood as a whole doesn't honor God as it once did.

It seems like there was a spat of good, solid Christian films in the '80's. Maybe Reagan's Presidency had something to do with it.

Robert Benton's "Places in the Heart" with Sally Field from 1984 is a lovely film. The scene in church where Field's dead husband is sitting next to her always makes me cry. lol. Just thinking about that scene makes me cry. 8~)

And Steve Martin made a great little film in 1992 that didn't get much notice, but was a really nice movie -- "Leap of Faith."
