HiJolly
I'll second that. Those three were all worth watching. God's Army and States of Grace were both spiritually uplifting.

I hope these two new films can be shown in Utah. Did Falling play at the Sundance Film festival?

Brigham City is actually one of my favourite "scary" movies.

It's so creepy, yet so tender at the end.

I'm talking about Falling by Dutcher.


Also do you know if it's Christian at all? I have been told by someone that it's the last Christian film he made???
I would not think it would be with foul language? would clear play take out the foul language if it has some?


I just can't see how he could loose his faith after making such great films? States of Grace was so Powerful!

The impression I received from the stories I read on this is that he is not claiming any religious label at this time. Falling has religious themes, but it is R-rated, and I've heard it contains rough language. Haven't seen it though.

Thanks, I thought I might watch it, if I can rent it somewhere and have clearplay take out any bad language, but clearplay does not list it as a filter they have. Guess I will wait and see?

Hi, If you look on here LDS - Mormon Movies/Films

there is a link to all 3 of his movies, just a little down the page, I liked all 3! I thought they were very well done and have watched them more than once.

God's Army
States of Grace
Brigham City


You can also rent them from Netflix
