I absolutely loved this movie. I also cried a couple of times. First, because the movie is moving and second because I thought of this year's Presidential election and just how far we've strayed from our principles.
My father’s first presidential election he was able to participate in was for Reagan. My first was for Trump. Both elections were historical. But my father’s experience (in my mind) was better. Reagan was a good man. I grew up listening to my father and grandfather tell “Reagan stories”. As I got older I would watch some of his highlight reels on YouTube. I grew to love the man and yet, my only real memory I have of him actively being in the news is when he passed away. I’m 29 years old and long for the GOP of Reagan’s day. May the Lord return to us principled men in government and perhaps grant us something even more profound than Reaganism.
The only presidential election I ever participated in was for Reagan, but I've since repented of having done so, now understanding that I was complicit in everything biblically abominable (including his allegiance to the biblically seditious Constitution) that he was party to while in office:
"...Voters become accomplices to the crimes of those they elect. Paul warned Timothy of one of the consequences of impulsive appointments:
'Do not lay hands upon anyone too hastily [in America's case, unbiblically vote for] and thus share responsibility for the sins of others; keep yourself free from sin.' (1 Timothy 5:22, NASB)
"Two verses later, Paul warned that “the sins of some men are quite evident, going before them to judgment; for others, their sins follow after.” Because no man can look into the heart of another man, voters often do not know what sins they are participating in until after the election – often long after the election. For example, on August 4, 2010, Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn R. Walker overturned California’s Proposition 8, known as “California’s Marriage Protection Act,” (which declares that “only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California”), paving the way for sodomites like himself to “marry” one another. Vaughn was appointed to the bench in 1989 by President George H.W. Bush. Christians who helped elect the “conservative” Bush into office are therefore accomplices to this wickedness...."

Thanks Andrew, a great summary. I’m looking forward to seeing the movie when ( and IF) it makes it to Australia
