411mania.com has an interview with Dallas Jenkins, the director of the 2006 film Midnight Clear, which has recently come out on DVD. The film is based upon a short story by Dallas Jenkins' father, Jerry B. Jenkins, better known for his work as the co-author of many books, including the Left Behind series. This sounds like a good one for us to review, since the interviewer gives what might be the highest praise that a Christian filmmaker can get:
"If I watched your film and had no idea you were a Christian, I would never guess or assume it was a Christian movie. I think that's a sign that you've done your job."
Now, I say that is high praise, but it also could be criticism. I would say that had I not known that Michael Landon Jr. was a Christian, I would have guessed that The Last Sin Eater was made by someone who learned about Christianity by reading the back of a Bible-box.
EDIT: I forgot to post the image. D'oh!

I would like to see this movie because they decided to make the short into a feature so it must have some credibility for the film-makers to do it.
