Forgiven
Views:0 Comment:0 channels:Movie Trailers
Description: A feature length documentary Co-Directed by The Downs Brothers...... Synopsis: Forged from the blood of slaves, the Louisiana State Prison in Angola was built on an old slave-breeding plantation that became the first for-profit prison in the nation after the abolition of slavery. Once considered America's bloodiest penitentiary, Angola underwent a religious makeover in 1995 under the direction of Warden Burl Cain. From the words "I want to live" shouted by "Bishop" Eugene Tanniehill at a religious rodeo ring call out, "Forgiven" goes behind the prison walls first made famous by the Oscar winning documentary "The Farm." "Forgiven" then chronicles the sometimes heartbreaking stories of inmates serving life sentences for Murder, Rape, Abduction and Armed Robbery and focuses on their tales of redemption. Several of these prisoners have become ordained ministers during their incarceration, while others have gone through Angola's controversial Christian-based seminary program known as "The Bible College." These Unforgiven have now found their souls calling and want to share their messages of hope, love and forgiveness to help other prisoners hurting behind bars. The Emmy award winning film director, Alex Downs, teams up with his brother, fine artist and filmmaker, Mac Downs, to focus a secular eye on the religious conversion of inmates behind the bars of this "greatest prison church in the world." "Forgiven" is set against the incongruous beauty of the Louisiana swamp and the strange college-like dorm setting of this maximum security prison which houses Louisiana's most violent criminals, 85% of which will die behind bars. In the end "Forgiven" is a call for reform and forgiveness and focuses on the power of compassion-based programs in prison and the effect these programs have on rehabilitating inmates.

Joe Redner has not endorsed this website and the opinions do not necessarily represent the opinions or views of Joe Redner or Joe Redner Enterprises. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Loved, admired, and hated!!! Joe Redner has been called everything under the sun!! Many terms have been used to describe Joe, including: pimp, pervert, patriot, philanderer, politician, instigator, intellectual, self- promoter, humanitarian, hypocrite, publicity hound, male pig, exploiter, criminal, narcissist, hero and genius. This is the first full- feature, completely independent documentary to explore the life of legendary Florida strip club owner, Joe Redner, also known as the father of the nude lap dance. Charismatic to some, revolting to others, Joe Redner is most often associated with owning one of the most famous nude clubs in America, the Mons Venus. Although Joe has been fighting the city's zoning laws, and winning, since the 1970’s, Joe Redner and the Mons Venus came into the national spotlight in 1999 when Tampa’s City Council, with support from Mayor Dick Greco, tried to ban lap dancing. The city ordinance passed, but not without an explosive fight that made national headlines with feature stories on ABC’s “20/20” and Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show.” Joe has continued to steal headlines with his bids for local public office during the last several years. Joe Redner has also won millions of dollars in court cases against the City of Tampa, and local surrounding counties, defending his 1st Amendment rights and eminent domain property court cases. No Average Joe: The Story of Joe Redner explores issues far beyond Joe just owning the Mons Venus and fighting for his 1st Amendment rights. Directed by Shelby McIntyre, this documentary explores the man that has been arrested over 140 times, earned his GED in jail at the age of 40, became an avid student of the law, got clean and sober in the mid- 1980's, and has run for local public office 7 times. No Average Joe: The Story of Joe Redner spans Joe Redner’s early life right up to the March 2007 runoff for Tampa's District 1 City Council seat. Joe Redner has many detractors as well!! This documentary will include interviews from those that love Joe, hate Joe, and everybody in between. With interviews from family members, friends, and foes, this documentary explores the many facets of the enigma named Joe Redner, not just what you have seen on the TV and in newspapers. Whether you love him or hate him this intriguing documentary makes you want to watch him every step of the way!! No Average Joe: The Story of Joe Redner will be complete this Summer 2007.
