Exclusive Clip: The Journey Home

Posted on September 17, 2015 at 7:00 am

When Luke Mercier (Dakota Goyo, Real Steel) heard some noise outside his house, he never could have guessed what he would find. Discovering a young polar bear cub that has been separated from its mother, Luke knows he has to do something to help. Despite the warnings of his family and friends, Luke speeds off on a snowmobile, with the cub in tow, deep into the frozen wilderness. But when a violent storm closes in, Luke’s mother (Bridget Moynahan, “Blue Blood”) and family friend Muktuk (Goran Visnjic, “ER”) frantically search for the daring pair as they defy starvation and below freezing temperatures so both boy and bear can complete their own journeys home.

Here’s the trailer:

Contest: Win a DVD of the Football Drama “Catching Faith”

I am pleased to have two copies of “Catching Faith” to give away. It is a faith-based story about a high school football star whose family is not as perfect as they seem. When he is caught drinking, he risks losing his place on the team and his reputation. His sister is so desperate to maintain her position as valedictorian that she compromises her integrity. The family faces a sad loss that adds to the distress and upheaval. But the tough times carry important lessons about sticking together, telling the truth, resisting peer pressure and what being on a team really means.

To enter the contest, send me an email at moviemom@moviemom.com with “Catching Faith” in the subject line and tell me your favorite football team. Don’t forget your address! (U.S. addresses only). I’ll pick a winner at random on September 1, 2015. Good luck!
