TO HOLLYWOOD: Open letter from Stephen Simon
041304.asx
Description
Stephen Simon is a filmmaker who helped make "What Dreams May Come" and "Somewhere in Time." Stephen says Hollywood has yet to recognize, as a genre unique unto itself, those movies that inspire, uplift, and speak to our souls; that this is already a genre without being recognized as such, because moviegoers want to see more of these kinds of movies. So he has created the Spiritual Cinema Circle to connect spiritually oriented movies with the people who want to view them.

It's a great idea: a subscription that delivers a couple of DVDs to your mailbox each month. The DVDs contain Stephen's picks for the uplifting and entertaining documentaries, films, and shorts that you might otherwise miss. And you'll get Stephen's emailed newsletter, with news and his reviews of the films. Unlike many other programs, this one has no return hassles. The DVDs are yours to keep. View them yourself then share them with your friends and family.

Stephen's team scours the filmmaking world to find the gems. The Spiritual Cinema Circle is a unique delivery system, one that helps support the often independent filmmakers, too, with a portion of your subscription fee going directly to them. And it helps these wonderful films get the distribution they deserve. They have a limited time offer - Join Today and Get Your First Month of Movies FREE (all you pay is shipping & handling)

About the Author
Stephen Simon is a veteran producer whose distinguished career includes the Presidency of two major production companies and the development and production of a myriad of well-known films such as: "Smokey and the Bandit," "The Goodbye Girl," "The Electric Horseman," "Somewhere in Time," the Academy Award winning "What Dreams May Come", and the Emmy-nominated Lifetime movie "Homeless to Harvard: The Liz Murray Story." He is also author of the definitive work "The Force is With You: Mystical Movie Messages that Inspire Our Lives," published by Walsch Books, an imprint of Hampton Roads. Simon is also co-founder of The Spiritual Cinema Circle.

Recognizing the powerful effect - both positive and negative - that the media has upon our culture, Simon has become the leading spokesperson for a new genre he has coined as "The Spiritual Cinema Circle." Spiritual Cinema examines who we are and why we are here and illuminates the human condition through stories and images that inspire us to explore that what we can be as a humanity when we operate at our very best. Spiritual Cinema reflects our beliefs and values and illustrates their impact upon our lives and our society. In this context, spiritual refers not to religion but to the unseen divine essence that is life force itself. History has revealed that individuals or cultures that lose their connection to this essence become devoid of love, respect and compassion.
Stephen Simon is co-founder and president of "Moving Messages: The Institute for Spiritual Entertainment, Inc." an educational, development and distribution non-profit corporation for feature films, television shows, documentary, educational and training programs. Its mission is to use traditional and new media to express ideas that illumine and inspire individual and social transformation. With a focus on spirituality and film, he teaches several seminars and writes a nationally syndicated column called "The Movie Mystic. He is a graduate of UCLA and Loyola Law School and was admitted to the California Bar in 1974. He practiced law from 1974 to 1976.
