Deadline Movie Premiere

Benefiting New Destiny Christian Center - Outreach

The Orlando Premiere of Deadline, the new movie starring Steve Talley and Academy Award nominee Eric Roberts, was Monday, March 5th. Hosted by the New Destiny Christian Center, the premiere benefited the Church's Outreach Efforts.

"We’re proud to have hosted the Orlando premiere of Deadline, a film that demonstrates the power of truth, justice, persistence and the local press as two newspaper reporters solve a cold case Civil Rights murder,” said Pastor Paula White. “It was a captivating evening and we're pleased to donate the proceeds to New Destiny Christian Center's Community Outreach Efforts." A heartfelt Q&A with cast members, writer Mark Ethridge and director Curt Hahn followed the premiere.

The central objective of the New Destiny Christian Center's Ministry is to build people of Purpose, Prayer, Power, Praise and Prosperity. A church for all people. A family church meeting family needs. This mandate is being fulfilled by teaching the reality of the gospel in a simplistic fashion, and as a result we are learning how to apply it to our everyday living. Our goal is to teach God’s Holy Word in an uncompromised fashion so that purposes can be revealed and destinies fulfilled.

Inspired by a true story, Deadline is a powerful movie that viewers most often say reminds them of To Kill a Mockingbird.

" Deadline is a powerful movie with a very strong, Christian redemptive worldview about the search for truth and justice...Matt and Bullock’s adventures in solving this case take them into the communities, homes and hearts of both whites and blacks."

~ Renee Green, Movie Guide

“Deadline is an important, terrific movie, with the kind of compelling story and fascinating characters that made The Help so engaging. Beautifully acted and directed.”
~ Dr. Linda Seger, Script Consultant on over 2,000 scripts and author of Making a Good Script Great

“I cannot wait to see Deadline again. It's been so much on my mind since the screening that I am hungry to see, hear, learn more about it. It's a wonderful movie, full of great stories and beautifully executed.”
~ Hank Klibanoff, Pulitzer Prize winner, Professor of Journalism, Emory University, Managing Editor, The Civil Rights Cold Case Project

"Curt Hahn has transformed Mark Ethridge’s story into a film that’s a larger heirloom of the American South. Deadline's greatest gift may be its ability to tap into the stains and fault lines of the South, but also into the region’s unfaltering resilience and ability to forgive and redeem."

~ Audra D. S. Burch, The Miami Herald

“Deadline is a film about a murder mystery - grounded in fact, documented by journalistic credibility and dramatized in a way that is both entertaining and chilling.”

~ John Seigenthaler, Founder, The First Amendment Center

“Deadline packs a powerful punch…a film that goes by quickly but has much to say while it does…appropriately economical when it comes to making its case without belaboring points, but it is not economical with the truth.”

~ Evans Donnell, Art Now Nashville

“I loved Deadline. It touched my heart. No, it touched my soul.”
~ Mike Pandey, Filmmaker and Chair of the steering committee for the International Film Festival of India

“Deadline is a powerful movie with a conscience. Once in a while, a movie is made that affects social consciousness and creates a conduit for important change in one’s self, in one’s country. Deadline is one of these movies.”

~ Donna Peerce, Movie Blog

" 4 Doves! Deadline is a compelling and powerfully told film and we gladly award it our Dove "Family-Approved" Seal for ages twelve plus. This film shines as a beacon in the dark cesspool of racism."

~ Edwin L. Carpenter, Dove Foundation
