Unbroken: Path to Redemption
This is the next chapter in the true story of Louis Zamperini. Director Angelina Jolie’s 2014 “Unbroken” told the story of this Olympian surviving 41 days in raft during WWII, only the be rescued by the Japanese, imprisoned, & tortured in a POW camp until the end of the war. Now, a new director & actors completes the story about his return to family in California, helping selling war bonds, & his marriage. Advertised as the end of the war but beginning of the battle, Zamperini suffered from posttraumatic stress disorder & alcoholism before finding religion at a Billy Graham revival. Although this drama feels a bit heavy handed as Zamperini’s condition spirals downward but his wife Cynthia’s love & support shines as the key to his redemption. This is amazing inspirational film about the power of faith. Photos & footage of the real characters play at the end of the film. This was a rough cut screening of this film not scheduled to be released until October 5, 2018.
Alien gives it 3 “forgiveness & redemption” stars out of 4.
