I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

I love good movies of all kinds. 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: [email protected]. 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.
