Heart of the Beholder

This drama recounts the true events surrounding a family's establishment of the first videocassette rental stores in St. Louis during 1980. Their commitment to offering a diverse selection of films leads them to a confrontation with a corrupt prosecutor, influenced by a religious group, over Martin Scorsese's controversial film, "The Last Temptation of Christ."

The film features a cast that includes April Barnett, Carrie Armstrong, and Priscilla Barnes, among others. Its exploration of censorship and the impact on a family's business makes it a thought-provoking watch for those interested in the intersection of media and morality. The gay theme adds another layer to the narrative, appealing to collectors who appreciate films that tackle societal issues head-on.
