Come What May

I finally watched the trailer of Advent Film Group’s latest movie, “Come What May”. It’s about a young man who must choose between a scholarship and making just one morally corrupt argument in his debate career. The trailer gave me goosebumps. ;-)

I can most certainly relate to the main character, given that I’ve been debating in the NCFCA for the past four years. Sometimes making that one morally corrupt argument seems so enticing. It’s easy to forget the whole purpose to our actions — doing the right thing.

I most certainly plan on purchasing the DVD of this film, if not just to fund the creation of more films by Advent Film Group in the future.

    As the director of COME WHAT MAY and founder of Advent Film Group, I’m very appreciative of Shaun’s comments about the movie trailer. He got to the core of the story. Thanks for your support.

    I’m also interested in understanding the context of the other comment about “stop(ping) the heathen practice of dating.” I know it’s a sensitive issue. And we may have struck a nerve with a reader. But I do sincerely want to know more about the reasons behind the comment. I have two teenage boys, so this issue is right at my front door.

    I hope you didn’t find my comment too rude, Mr. Escobar. I know opposition to abortion and dating is a very serious issue.

    However, I am a little frustrated with a simplistic mentality presented through some lines. The problem with “doing the right thing” is that the right thing isn’t always as obvious as it seems. I personally am largely pro-choice and pro-dating, and think that my decisions are grounded in sound reason and ethics, and am a little sick of the us vs. them rhetoric.
