Movies that inspire seem to be few and far between, but with the upcoming movie Soul Surfer, we are sure to be inspired by the true story of Bethany Hamilton. As we all struggle with trials on this earth, we can look to a person like Bethany, and we can be inspired by this wonderful story of faith, determination, and hope. I'm looking forward to seeing this one soon!
In the movie trailer, I especially like when Carrie Underwood's character says, "I don't know why terrible things happen to us sometimes, but I have to believe that something good is gonna come out of this." Isn't that the hope that we all cling to when we're faced with heartache and trials?
Soul Surfer is the inspiring true story of teen surfer Bethany Hamilton. Bethany lost her left arm in a shark attack and courageously overcame all odds to become a champion again, through her sheer determination and unwavering faith.
Bethany (AnnaSophia Robb) was born to surf. A natural talent who took to the waves at a young age, she was leading an idyllic life on Kauai, participating in national surf competitions with her best friend Alana (Lorraine Nicholson), when everything changed. On Halloween morning, a 14-foot tiger shark came out of nowhere and seemed to shatter all her dreams.
Soul Surfer reveals Bethany's fight to recover from her ordeal and how she grappled with the question of her future. Strengthened by the love of her parents, Tom (Dennis Quaid) and Cheri (Helen Hunt), and supported by her youth group leader Sara (Carrie Underwood), Bethany refuses to give in or give up, and begins a bold return to the water.
Soul Surfer comes to theaters this Friday, April 8, 2011.
