"The Nativity Story" opens December 1. Southern Baptist Theological Seminary president Albert Mohler calls it "in season and on message."
It stars Keisha Castle-Hughes (Oscar nominee for Whale Rider), and it was written by Mike Rich (Radio, The Rookie) and directed by Catherine Hardwicke (Thirteen). Costing more than $65 million to make and market, "Nativity" is one of the biggest and most expensive biblical-themed releases from a major media company. The film, recounting Mary and Joseph's journey to Bethlehem, will open on 2,700 screens. There’s an interesting article here about the growing interest in films respectful of the Christian faith. Here's the trailer:
