    Movie Review: Thirteen Lives and Slaves and Kings

    Alexis Walkenstein from AWE PR, a friend of Fr. Edward, joins him to talk about Thirteen Lives.  Fr. Edward had the chance to pre-screen Thirteen Lives through Grace Hill Media, and Alexis saw the buzz and wanted to see it.  After seeing Alexis tweet about it, Fr. Edward knew she'd be great to discuss that movie and then also to talk about a project AWE PR was working on and promoting called Slaves and Kings.

    Interview: Jo Koy and Lydia Gaston on Easter Sunday

    An interview with comedic legend Jo Koy and actress Lydia Gaston about their historic film releasing in theaters this Friday, August 5th called "Easter Sunday".  Easter Sunday is the first film to have an all Asian cast and Filipino leads.  It's a movie that made me laugh and conveys the value of celebrating holidays as family.  I know it's not Easter Sunday on August 5th when it releases, but it can bring us some Resurrection hope this summer!
