| Introduction | I love good movies of all kinds. (Can't you tell.) Sometimes I'm in the mood for a film that leaves me inspired or makes me think. I founded Reel Inspiration because I believe film patrons can have a voice in what kind of movies are screened at the movie theater. Would you like to see more meaningful films? Send a message to Hollywood by attending these films when they first open and encouraging your friends to do the same. Join our grassroots promotional campaign by becoming a REEL MEMBER and receive free reviews of diverse, thought provoking, uplifting films. To become a REEL MEMBER, e-mail: reelinspiration@hotmail.com. Reel Inspiration's mission is to encourage and promote the production and theatrical success of diverse films with entertaining, powerful stories that uplift, challenge, give hope or inspire the human consciousness. Movie Blessings! Jana Segal |
