My sister-in-law recommended this movie to me (the 2024 one).
When my boys were younger, I would read aloud this short book to them at Christmas. This movie production adheres to the story and even enhances and illuminates the theme.
The acting, the music, and scenery is superb.
I loved how the producers share what each Herdman is "currently doing" during the credits. Very creative! Lauren Graham, from Gilmore Girls, is the adult Beth narrating as she remembers this specific pageant.
Considerations: If you have read the story, you know that the Herdmans are awful-fight, cuss, smoke cigars. No swear words are uttered. Taking God's name in vain is audible.
**Highly, highly recommend. It caused me to focus on Christ and how He came for us all-while we were yet sinners.
