HELPING ORPHANS
A new film entitled Saving Sarah Cain is based on Beverly Lewis’s 2000 novel The Redemption of Sarah Cain and was directed by Michael Landon Jr. Sarah Cain is a columnist for the Portland Times, but she’s lost her edge as a writer. Suddenly she learns that her sister, who had become an Amish convert many years previously, has just died and left her four children orphans in the Pennsylvania Amish country. Sarah travels to Pennsylvania and decides to take the children back to Oregon with her, where they have predictable difficulties adjusting to “twentieth century life.” Unbeknownst to the kids, Sarah resurrects her writing career by writing about her nephews and nieces. A crisis is precipitated when they find out, the result of which leads to Sarah’s return to the faith she once shared with her sister. This is a touching movie that should please you, and it’s probably available in your church DVD library or on Netflix.
Film Rating: PG.
My Rating: 3 stars.
