James Moore: Do you think maybe, maybe we could go inside, we could sit down. Or maybe I could take you and get a cup of coffee.
Ms. Wexler: I don't need coffee. And I don't need conversation. Travis is gone. Everyone's happy. Fine.
James Moore: Not me.
Ms. Wexler: Not you?
James Moore: No, ma'am. I'm not happy.

User Reviews

Refreshingly original, inspirational film

Corbin Bernsen plays James Moore, a minister struggling with a kind of faith-based mid-life crisis. Quitting his job, he returns to his hometown to find that its people have been through their own share of crises and misfortunes - including a tragic, deadly house-fire resulting in the arrest and detention in a psych hospital of Travis, his childhood friend. Can James pull it together enough to make sense of life's unfortunate turns? And how far should he go to help his friend? Corbin Bernsen wrote, directed and co-produced this refreshingly original story. His use of unknown actors gives the film a realistic edginess that some may find fault with, but I found part of the charm. In the end, themes of doubt, faith, friendship, loyalty and hope are what makes the film inspirational, family fare.
