Mandie and the Secret Tunnel (2009)

This movie has a rather beautiful and peaceful feel to it, a lot more than most movies. But it's also rather strange and a bit awkward at times, particularly when it shows scenes from a story Mandie had been told.

This is a movie based on the popular Christian book series Mandie. This film is about Mandy trying to discover whether or not she has an inheritance and along the way what her family heritage really is.

Having grown up reading the Mandie mysteries,I was delighted when I heard they were going to be making a movie of the first book,only problem was it wasn't being shown in mainstream theatres and it went straight to DVD only to be carried by Christain bookstores,lucky for me I was able to buy a copy only yesterday,I was not disappointed,they stuck to the story and added more to Mandie background of how her grandfather saved and hid Cherokee Indians from the Trail of Tears. The scenic shots of North Carolina filmed at a national park are superb and the music is both haunting and beautiful.
