For the Love of Ruth

A faith based film loosely tied to the Old Testament story of Ruth and Naomi, but without overwhelming the viewer with the proselytizing dialogue that promotes an agenda for members of the choir, rather than a diverse audience. The acting and the characterizations are excellent. You have your good people striving to overcome what life throws at them, who persist to do what's right in the face of mounting obstacles. And then you have the villains who bear all the typical human traits of avarice, greed and power who stand to profit from eliminating those that stand in their way. You cheer on the sidelines for the decent people to win out and hope that the selfish ones get their comeuppance--its that good. Its a hopeful and eventually a joyful movie could possibly affect even the most cynical viewer. Give it a look.

Wish it was on dvd or stream capable outside of xfinity.... I love a movie that shows good people working hard and the battle between losing yourself to money hungry behavior or being decent to others.

I enjoyed this movie because of the realism that enhanced the true meaning of pain, indifferences and prejudices.

This is such a great movie! A beautiful adaptation of the story of Naomi and Ruth! The actors are all very talented. I can watch this movie and over again. The book of Ruth is one of my favorites books of the Bible! I have watched several movies based on Biblical characters. This is one of the best I have watched. The writing and casting are amazing! Some of the movies I have watched don't come close to being as good as this one! The actors playing Naomi and Ruth were well chosen. I have met and encountered many women who are very similar to Naomi and Ruth. Thanks to the writer and actors! Well done!

I loved this movie so much. Hurts me to the core I can't buy this anywhere
