Pendragon - Sword of His Father

A few weeks ago, Laura was looking at some blogs and found on Young Ladies Christian Fellowship website a drawing that you had to enter your families favorite movie and win the movie Pendragon. She entered Hansie’s and my email address and we won! We weren’t totally thrilled, as we had heard that it was a gory movie. We received it in the mail yesterday and decided to have a girls night and watch it. Sarah, Laura, Hannah, Rebekah and I walked to the grocery store, (which is a long walk from our house) and bought some ice cream bars, popsicles, candy bars, and pop. When we got back home it was nine forty-five. Rebekah quickly put Lydia to bed and Sarah made the guys’ lunches. Then we set up the laptop on a TV tray in Sarah’s and Laura’s room and then all five of us piled onto Laura’s bed. When we first started the movie, we were kinda skeptical, since we have watched several of the film festival movies that weren’t the greatest. But let me tell you that once I watched Pendragon, I rated it at the top of my list of favorite movies!


A.D. 411 - Roman Legions depart the Isle of Britain; the people are left to defend themselves. Artos Pendragon lives in a coastal village with his parents and sister. As they prepare for the coming storm, Artos’ father teaches him that God has a purpose for his life. But when Saxon raiders burn the village and murder his father, Artos discovers that following God’s calling to defend his people will cost him everything. This is a very dramatic movie and it doesn’t show any blood!
