Movie Reviews of Chasing Secrets
Movie Review: An Excellent Portrayal of Genuine Love for the Unloved.
Summary: 5 Stars
There are three aspects of this movie that are outstanding. The first is the portrayal of an unwanted, hurting child. Newborn JoAnn was 'thrown away' by her hard-boiled grandfather, only to be returned in a basket. So, she grew up in a very dysfunctional family, unwanted and unloved. Anyone who has a heart for children will find that heart hurting, have a lump in their troat and maybe a tear in their eye for JoAnn ,
The second outstanding feature of this movie is the loving portrayal of the black family. In so many movies, African Americans are depicted as little more than gangland thugs, or some other negative portrayal. In political life, if they don't tow the Liberal black line they are often derisively called 'Uncle Toms.' Yet, in this movie we see the sweetest and most loving of people, the way millions of ordinary black families really are. They aren't criminals; they aren't crusaders still angry that their ancesters were slaves; this family is one who sees a hurting little 'white trash' girl who responds to their love, and they grow to love her as their own daughter, and she loves them with all her heart.
Finally, it is clear from the story that this elderly couple's love for JoAnn comes out of their love for the Lord. No, it isn't in the least bit preachy or offensive. It's just the way they are, almost instinctively letting the Holy Spirit within them extend His love to a frightened little girl. They are His instruments of love.
This movie may be very hard to find once this issue of it has sold out, so I would suggest getting a copy immediately. If it has sold out, it is certainly well worth searching for, even buying a used copy. If you like movies that will leave you both thouched and inspired, this certainly is a movie for you.
