À propos de ce film

It's the song that brings ultimate hope to so many...often in the midst of life's most challenging moments. Amazingly, the song was written in mere minutes by MercyMe lead singer Bart Millard. In reality, those lyrics took a lifetime to craft. Although he found faith at a young age, life wasn't easy for Bart. He leaned into an active imagination and used his love of music as an escape from a troubled home life. As he grew older, Bart turned to football in hopes of somehow connecting with his abusive father. But a career-ending injury, combined with the vision of a teacher who saw unlimited potential, set Bart on a musical pathway. Chasing a dream while running from broken relationships with his father and Shannon, his childhood sweetheart, Bart hits the road in an old, decrepit tour bus with his new band MercyMe — named for his grandmother's favourite expression. With the guidance of a grizzled music industry insider, the band begins a journey none of them could ever have imagined. Directed by the Erwin Brothers (Mums' Night Out and Woodlawn), I Can Only Imagine stars J. Michael Finley, Madeline Carroll, Trace Adkins, Priscilla C. Shirer, with Cloris Leachman and Dennis Quaid. A gripping reminder of the power of forgiveness, I Can Only Imagine beautifully illustrates that no one is ever too far from God's love — or from an eternal home in Heaven.

Notes et avis

Really enjoyed the really well thought out presentation of Bart's life which I am sure will benefit many people who can relate to harmful people. The healing process and finding Jesus' love and how a person can be redeemed. I recommend this movie.

A beautifully written story of what's real....had me (a grown man) tearing up recounting all those that I loved in life and want to see arise from their fallen states.

What a movie! i can honestly say after watching this movie an knowing the story it has forever changed the way i hear the song I can only Imagine. So beautifully written.
