Sister Aimee (2019)

Sister Aimee: Directed by Samantha Buck, Marie Schlingmann. With Michael Mosley, Macon Blair, Jordan Elsass, Lee Eddy. America’s most famous evangelist is a woman looking for a way out. Fed up with her own success, and swept up in her lover’s daydreams about Mexico, she finds herself on a wild road trip to the border. Based on true events. Mostly made up.

“Sister Aimee is, at the very least, based on a real person from the 1920s who was one of the biggest preachers of her time. How true the rest of the story is, is likely very little. But that doesnu0026#39;t mean itu0026#39;s not entertaining.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eWe pick up with Sister Aimee as she is becoming disillusioned in her job and she runs away with a man, Kenny. The story follows her on the run, as sheu0026#39;s trying to keep people from realizing she has left, having rather people believe she evaporated up into heaven. Aimee and Kenny join up with a guide named Rose who assists them.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis movieu0026#39;s tone is one that is a notch below serious. It gives a sly nod to the viewer at points and has them laughing and smiling along with Aimee. It wonu0026#39;t be one to wow people, but not half bad either.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSide note; Not sure why, but there seems to be some confusion about what type of movie this is. Itu0026#39;s certainly not a cannibal movie.”
