Beyond the Farthest Star

"Beyond the Farthest Star" is an insightful, mesmerizing story that centers on the Wells family. Each struggle with resentment and bitterness that threatens to destroy their family...and the emotions intensify following a move to the small town of Leonard, Texas. BTFS has universal themes that speak to all people and effectively weaves the idea that there is hope in spite of physical or emotional scars. This richly layered story shares a raw honest portrayal of transformation and restoration after hidden secrets are revealed and healing is allowed to begin. Elements of suspense, romance, and political intrigue are combined with multi-dimensional characters to present an escalating tension that intensifies to an explosive climax, and, ultimately, to a satisfying conclusion.

When "Beyond the Farthest Star" was in theaters, I was able to see it several times and was riveted to the screen each time as I picked up nuances missed before. The story is fascinating and the actors do an incredible job of making their characters come to life on screen. This film also inspired a novel by Bodie & Brock Thoene, a Kinkade painting, and a new arrangement of "Beauty For Ashes" by Crystal Lewis. I am thrilled that it is coming to DVD so I can have a copy of my own and can share it with family and friends who missed it in theaters. Not for younger kids, but I highly recommend this movie for 13 and up!

Wow!!! I just got through watching the movie "Beyond the Farthest Star". I have always said that christian, faith based or inspirational movies (whatever you choose to call them) that they need to be real. Don't show me a movie that is all goodness and light because let's face it...even those who were brought up in the church go through dark times. Just because you are a Christian it does not make you immune to the real heartaches that people endure! Everyone christian and non christian has a past....has a secret or two...and the enemy will use that to tear you apart. But God is bigger than all that and he will bring beauty from ashes!!! Well this movie is real....and it shows you that God no matter how dark it may seem to you can and will bring beauty from among those ashes!!! Well done!! I encourage you to watch this film. It is out now on dvd...you can purchase it in many locations, Walmart, Amazon to name a few! So get the dvd...and invite some friends over for a pizza and movie night........you won't be sorry!

I absolutely loved this film. I can see this giving hope and bringing light into the lives of teens struggling to find happiness and to their parents who want to help them. The cinematography was excellent. The lighting was done well, the shot selection was good and the acting was great. Living in Texas I know they didn't just take the easy stereotype for each actor. These actors passed stereotypes and portrayed idiosyncrasies that really made each character come alive. It was as if the creators took perceived public opinion, wrinkled it in a ball and threw it in the trash to be replaced with what the majority really believes. The events and issues represented real struggles in the world. I was inspired by the messages portrayed and would say that faith-based film is making a strong case to rival mainstream film content in the box office.

A wonderful movie about redemption and restoration to hurting people. A beautiful story of hope for pain when you have love and compassion. Highly recommend.

I was captivated just from watching the trailer, it's mind-blowing. Everything draws the viewer in from the cinematography to the beautiful acting.
