I Heard the Bells Review

Henry Wadworth Longfellow was a famous American poet in the 1800’s. One of his best known works is Paul Revere’s Ride.

In the eyes of his children, Henry was an energetic and loving father. He would always make the atmosphere of the house warm with his laughter, chatter, and songs.

Until a tragedy occurs, One of his closest family members died and made Henry sink into deep sorrow. He began to question life and even promised not to write again.

Before this verse appeared, Henry had to struggle with the grief he was experiencing. He lay in bed for a long time, depressed and hopeless.

Through this film, we are invited to question how someone can struggle through grief. Henry himself got through it through faith.

I Heard the Bells is a family film that depicts the magnitude of a father’s love for his family and how we are taught to go through a period of loss without losing hope and faith.

The plot of this film will also keep you guessing until the end. You could even say that this Christmas film is very different from most other Christian films that already exist.
