Hey, DocMaker, I bet this group could be the best critics you could ever find.
There are probably several churches associated with this forum that would enjoy a screening of this movie. Just ask them to PM you. They wouldn't want to admit it openly.
For the rest of you people, my pastor is UPC and has at least five TV's in his home.

Did you ask your Pastor if you can make that public knowledge?

There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

If I was your pastor and couldn't abide by the requirements of the organization I'd find another organization to join. Don't get me wrong, I don't oppose TV and I do attend UPCI churches but I'm no longer licensed with them.
As far as Richard is concerned, he is a dreamer and the world needs dreamers, in fact UPC needs dreamers. Joseph was one. I hope he is more successful with his movie than he was with the theme park he was going to build in central Ca. a few years ago.
Oh, bring it to Austin again, pleeeease! I missed it at SXSW! Of course I'll see it on Sundance, maybe buy a DVD, but I bet the theatrical experience would be special. The Paramount would be awesome, or the Alamo Draft House, oh yeah baby!
It's like a dream come true!

Another fascinating thread I missed while I was on my break a few months ago. I am pasting below a SF gate review of the documentary "Audience of One".
I think watching this film is going to be interesting but to anybody who has followed RG the least little bit it will be no surprise.
I was the the NRB convention about a dozen years ago after RG said God told him to start not one but something like seven Christian satellite networks. He was convinced that what is now DISH network was going to give him the satellite channels.
He wrote a book about all of this that I think was supposed to have the happy ending of it becoming reality but that had not happened by the time of the NRB so he just ended the book with his assurance it was all going to happen. They had a huge classy booth with great graphics and were handing out this book at NRB.
It was a fascinating read but it was clear RG is delusional. I then found out a friend of mine was involved in the situation with the wealthy man RG was looking for to finance all of this so I found out some of the inside scoop on that. I don't remember much now but it was all very interesting.
That was the beginning of RG's WYSIWYG filmworks that when the satellite networks didn't happen he turned into a film festival and the hopes of producing films.
I did a google search on this doc about him and one of the funniest and most accurate statements I read was a quote they had from RG's mom where she said he was "a sweet man but naive".
I would have a little more sympthay for him if he had the brains to understand that he does not have a clue as to what he is doing trying to direct and produce a film and would have just been happy to fund it while finding professionals to do the directing and producing.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."

BTW, I saw Religulous for the first time, last night. Twice! Is there clamor for my thoughts on that one?
Tell us. I know they filmed some speaking in tongues...
