Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.I tend to write stories about ordinary people who do extraordinary things. But it's a discerning demographic and I don't think Christian audiences are going to be led to a film just because it's got a spiritual theme. If we don't make good films with good stories, that door won't stay open very long.
