 New Christian Film "To the Wall" Shooting in Southern California by Angela Walker Principal photography began November 3 for “To the Wall,” a new movie from Oakwater Films produced in association with PureFlix Entertainment. “To the Wall” is written and directed by Carey Scott. David A.R. White (Mercy Streets, Hidden Secrets) as Wayne and Kevin Downes (Thr3e, The Moment After 1 & 2) as John Paul George are two strangers who take one journey to find their fathers who fought together in Vietnam. Candace Cameron Bure (Full House, The Wager) co-stars as Cynthia, John Paul’s fiancée, who is concerned that his journey will get in the way of their wedding, which is only three weeks away. Stephen Baldwin (seen at right) (SIX, Midnight Clear, The Genius Club) also co-stars as Sergeant Mansfield, the fathers’ platoon leader in Vietnam. Also joining the cast is Rebecca St. James as Annie, an Australian hitchhiker who meets Wayne and John Paul on their journey “To the Wall.” Just weeks before his wedding, John Paul discovers that his father, whom he never knew, wrote him letters from Vietnam. Longing to learn more about him, John Paul finds Wayne, the son of his dad’s war buddy, who also died during the war. As they set out to visit the Vietnam Wall, Wayne gives John Paul his dad’s letters one at a time. In his letters, John Paul finds healing for the wounds he suffered growing up without a father and healing for the pain of abandonment. Through their journey, John Paul and Wayne discover that God wants to be the father they never knew. “To the Wall” is planned for a nationwide theatrical release in September of 2009. ©2008 ChristianCinema.com |
