BILLY GRAHAM ~Movie Trailer "Billy: The Early Years"

  • 16 years ago
In theaters October 10!! Most of us know Billy Graham as the self-assured and charismatic preacher who became one of the most important figures of 20th Century Christianity. Now, with the release of Billy: The Early Years, we meet Billy as the earnest and promising young man at the crossroads of faith and doubt, ultimately facing the moment of decision that launched one of historys most powerful evangelistic careers. Most compellingly, Billy: The Early Years paints its portrait of Graham against the backdrop of his relationship with Charles Templeton, another gifted young preacher whos faith could not withstand the onslaught of scientific skepticism. He and Graham parted ways and in the film, Templeton comes to personify the rising tide of disbelief into which Graham launched his crusades. Filmed in Tennessee, Billy: The Early Years captures the feel of the Depression-era tent revival where Graham heeded the altar call, and follows him through the doubt and resolution of the next decade. The film was directed by the versatile actor/director Robby Benson the voice of The Beast in Disneys Beauty and the Beast. The movies power lays in its honest portrayal of Billys struggle with the ideas represented in Templetons eventual unbelief and shows how Billys faith, so dramatically portrayed in the film, goes on to change the face of modern evangelism
