A DANCE FOR BETHANY IS A
WINNER
-By Chris Cunningham, Redemptive Film Festival
“On a completely unrelated note, the script is breathtaking. It’s spell binding. I usually get very
bored reading scripts, but it held my attention the whole way through. The action is spread
masterfully between the different characters.” -Elisabeth Gray,
Actress - California
“Oh my gosh, I loved it. I’ll never be the same. I could watch this movie over and
over again. When will it be out on DVD? And I want a soundtrack
too.”
-Adult Female, at Carmike Theater
“People have got see this movie. It’s such a great story and so moving. These are the
types of films we need. Best movie for my money in years.”
-Adult Male, at Carmike Theater
“A Dance
for Bethany tells the truth about prostitution in America. How courageous of the filmmaker to
expose male responsibility for creating and maintaining the commercial sexual exploitation of
women and children”.
-Anya Cherneff, New York Coalition Against Trafficking in Women
“It’s wonderful.
There is something in this movie for everyone … so many amazing scenes. Oh. (she grabbed
her heart) The scene where Bethany is on the back porch with Sarah … when Sarah takes Bethany’s
sweet little face in her hands and tells her, Sugar plum, you are a pearl, I
thought my heart would burst through my chest. That was so powerful, so beautiful! Yvonne it’s
absolutely wonderful, just wonderful.” -K.S. (Adult female) - Georgia
Premier
“I watched the movie last night and was
expecting it to be one of those cheaply made home movies …. you know, how you can tell
that a movie is an independent film? Well this one didn’t feel like it at all. It looks great
and the acting was believable. They were really good! And the story! I don’t cry at movies but I
cried three times. I have two teenage boys and I’m going to show it to them. People don’t want
to accept that this really happens here do they? - Anyway, it was fabulous. I want my mom to see
it. She’s in charge of the women’s group of a large denominational church and I know they will
want to show it to their congregations.”
-Kim Bunn - Tennessee
“I watched A Dance for Bethany and then
sat down a second time and watched it with my grandson, granddaughter, and son immediately
thereafter. I was in AWE. We were all moved by the beauty in which the story was
delivered. The actresses, actors, the entire setting, and the way it was brought to life on
screen is something that I cannot even find the words to express.”
-L.G. (Adult Female) - Kentucky
“I
generally judge the success of a movie by the number of cries I get. If I get at least three
then it’s a hit. I had five. I love it.”
-A.A.
(Adult Female) - Florida
“We just watched the movie again. Even though we saw it in Asheville and new what the end
results would be, I still could not hold back the tears. The word needs to get out about this
movie”.
