A Second Chance

This is my first time with an IMDb account. I have been a long time fan of Dreams Come True Films. So I plan to review all of their films that I have seen. I am a resident of the Wabash Valley (in Indiana) where most or all of their films were produced.

Writer, Candy Beard and Director & Cinematographer Daniel Beard make an incredible team. Let's start with the drama A Second Chance. It is a fantastic film that tells the story of 3 teenage girls from the wrong side of the tracks. This film is full of twists and turns. You'll laugh and you'll cry so get your popcorn, a drink and a box of tissues and get ready to enjoy one of the best movies to come from the independent film world. Fun fact, this is a multi award winning film, and I highly recommend it.

Once again the director of this movie brought issues from real life into this picture and into your home. At first I thought these girls should be in juvenile hall and receive some tough love. But instead they are left to God. To see these girls go from one extreme to another was truly very emotional. It shows the miracles God can do if you just believe and put your faith and life in to God. As always the faith in God shows that the director truly loves God and is putting the word out that all you have to do is believe. As always this directors movies are in my collection. I have shared all of them with family and friends.

I had the great pleasure of attending a church screening of A Second Chance. My dates were my mom and my soon to be 12 year old nephew. The plot was simple enough. Three bad girls tangle with the law before putting their past behind them. More unique is the victum and their judge. It could have been a story of juvenile detention, but what we have is a seemingly leniant sentence. I thought the judge was off his rocker. :) What we see are bad girls who lack all compassion, respect or even human decency. They were more bully and thug like than simply misguided youth. Call it faith in God or intuition, the judge trusted them to more or less find their redemption. With a little steering from above, they do just that. From the opening fire sequence, we were all pulled into the film. My nephew was glued to the screen. I found myself thanking him for being a good kid. As their stories unfold, you find their families are misguided. And I started to think that I may have been too harsh in my judgement of them. From there, I will leave the heart breaking journey and emotional roller coaster to you. And it is truly both.

I cant find this movie anywere and the places I can find it do you have to pay for it even on the TV I was just wondering if there is how to watch this movie I was born and raised in Terre Haute Indiana and we need more of that around here if the movie is what I hear about.

Three girls are given a second chance at being productive members of society by the very person they 'wronged'.

Coming from challenging home situations, each of the three girls overcame the stigma of being arrested and went forward with their lives to appreciate forgiveness and learned to forgive.

Candy Beard and Daniel Beard once again prove themselves to be wonderful writers and directors.

Working with local authorities to make each scene realistic and believable just adds to the integrity of the storyline.

The cast and crew give of their talents to make this a most memorable and rewarding experience that makes all who see it appreciate the opportunity to re-do mistakes and improve the quality of life for all those around them.
