October Baby - In Theaters March 23

Hope for a Dying Culture

This weekend, the biggest box-office hit will be a film based on a popular book about young people being forced to fight to the death. That movie will open in approximately 4,000 theaters. This is also the weekend that OCTOBER BABY opens—in 385 theaters. Screen count is hardly the only difference: OCTOBER BABY offers a resounding message of hope, forgiveness, and the beauty of life.

The time is at hand. If you believe in the sanctity of life, make your voice heard by seeing OCTOBER BABY when it opens this weekend. Better yet, get a group of friends or family members together to see it with you. You'll experience what Charmaine Yoest of Americans United for Life calls, "a remarkable movie … a significant story beautifully told."

And more than that, you'll be letting the movie industry know you support films that support life. Let's send a loud message to a culture in need of a wake-up call!

Interview With Filmmaker Jon Erwin

"Dramatic TV series, documentaries, reality television, shorts, music videos and commercials. All of these are regulars for Jon Erwin of the Erwin brothers, a writer/director duo from Birmingham, Alabama.

These young and unorthodox artists are anything but traditional. They focus on new and innovative ways to produce a diverse portfolio of work – from their multi-award winning documentary The Cross and the Towers to the dramatic TV series Life After, to the international short film series God Provides.

Jon Erwin was writer, director, executive producer and director of photography for The Mysterious Islands, a documentary filmed in the Galapagos Islands, in partnership with Vision Forum.

Christian-Movie.com: Did the idea of taking a RED One and a lot of other film equipment to the "world’s end" make you nervous?

Jon Erwin: Very nervous. We’ve named our RED "Elley May" and there were a few times I thought she wasn’t gonna make it back home. But hey, that’s what insurance policies are for! I believe we were the first people to take the RED camera to the Galapagos. It’s very heavy – about 50 pounds. My poor 1st AC had to lug it everywhere. But the final images were stunning and made it completely worth it.

Christian-Movie.com: Your underwater shots required scuba diving to significant depths with your equipment. What challenges were involved in this process? Are you an experienced scuba diver?

Jon Erwin: Yes, I do scuba dive. My father-in-law owns a dive quarry and we dive there now and then. I also love to free dive. Having said that, diving in the Galapagos was extremely difficult. The currents are harsh and the water was pretty cold. But we used the Canon 5D Mark II, which is very small, and that made things a lot easier.

Life underwater in Galapagos is unbelievable. We dove with hundreds of black tip sharks and even a few hammerheads. It’s also incredible that we could swim with marine iguanas and penguins at the same time!"

Medal Of Honor Movie

An Erwin Brothers feature film is in development and it looks like it will be really good!

"April 17, 1945. Pearl Harbor.

Glass crashes against the floor as four men break into a General’s office. In the corner of the room, inside a glass display case, is America’s highest award – the Medal of Honor. They are here because it’s the only Medal of Honor is the pacific region. They have been sent by Major General Curtis Lemay on a secret and desperate mission to retrieve the precious medal so it could be pinned on a mortally injured soldier.

Suddenly, they smash the display case, steal the medal, and sneak away into the morning darkness. These acts were unprecedented in the course of U.S. military history, but so too was the incredible act of bravery by an airman who lay gravely injured in a hospital on Guam.

...Now sixty years later, Jonathan Erwin, grandson of Red Erwin, desperately wants to know his grandfather’s story. Starting with his grandmother, Betty, who has been reluctant to speak of the event, Jonathan begins to piece together one of the most amazing stories in U.S. Military history.

Journeying into his past, Jonathan discovers a moment of love, courage and honor – when the fate of twelve depended on the courage of one.

Medal of Honor is a epic story of love, sacrifice and courage beyond all odds."
