I have written & produced a fictional but unique, full length feature film that deals with the personal lives and situations of black gospel quartet artists. Only two major scenes left to shoot and we have started Post Production editing.
"Gospel Good, Gospel Bad, Gospel Ugly"
A film written by Michael L. Buie and directed by James A. House
This trailer is extended length to let potential distributors see what is in the film.

We feel we have a very different, but compelling story to tell.
SCRIPT LONG SYNOPSIS
Robert Chestnut, the lead singer of a quartet gospel group, must get his group signed to a major record label while navigating setbacks, flaws in his and key members' characters as well as their personal lives … and deal with a personal tragedy.
Robert is about finding ways to help others. Attempting to repair a faltering marriage with his wife, while overcoming his weakness for other women, he helps other group members navigate trials in their own lives.
The guitar player struggles with an alcohol problem and an abusive relationship with the mother of his child. Robert’s younger brother is unsavory and underhanded. To make matters worse, the co-founder of the group leaves during critical record label negotiations to explore the world of R&B music.
The group does many positive things besides inspiring others with song. They feed the hungry, take on just causes that improve society, teach kids to gain an education and set goals for their lives. Yet, as human beings, they each have their own shortcomings to conquer.
This movie, filled with joy, despair, ups and downs, drama, action, intrigue, and a peek into the world of modern-day slavery and exploitation, we get to see a story based on the real world of what people, even in the world of gospel music can go through ... the good, the bad and the ugly.
