HEART of the BEHOLDER is based on the true story of how a young couple was ruined by a group of religious fundamentalists because they were the only video store owners who dared to carry Martin Scorsese's controversial film, The Last Temptation of Christ. The couple stood up against relentless harassment, intimidation, and even death threats. When the couple refused to buckle, the religious zealots blackmailed the District Attorney into destroying their business and family.

In my twenty-eight years as a television executive, I've read thousands of scripts. It still amazes me how much trash finds its way into production while riveting, relevant stories are ignored. When I read Heart of the Beholder, I found an incredibly powerful story, told in a unique voice, which roused me to laughter, to righteous anger, and ultimately to immense satisfaction. Based on real people and real events, the film's structure is flawless and the writing excellent in every aspect.

Heart of the Beholder is a film project that has been up and down development slates in Hollywood since 1993. In most cases, the project was just too controversial because it deals with the fanaticism of the religious right. This film does focus on radical members of the Christian faith. However, this film is not about trashing Christians or their faith, and many scenes make that point very clear. Pure and simple, this film is about the abuse of power - both religious and political.
