Actor David Henrie discusses faith as a new film about the life and presidency of Ronald Reagan hits theaters.
“I believe the key takeaway is, does your existence hold significance or not?” Henrie, who appears in the movie, “Reagan,” as a youthful Reagan remarked. “And excel in that, whatever it may be. Do not underestimate God.”
Henrie, a Catholic, discussed the film with Our Sunday Visitor prior to its release in theaters nationwide on Aug. 30. The movie, classified PG-13, chronicles Reagan’s ascent to the presidency and his involvement in the collapse of the Soviet Union, as recounted by ex-KGB operative, Viktor Petrovich (Jon Voight). The two hour, 15 minute feature also includes the romantic tale of Reagan (Dennis Quaid) and his spouse, Nancy (Penelope Ann Miller), along with a narrative of belief.
“A core value in my life is participating only in initiatives that enhance truth, goodness, and beauty,” Henrie stated. “I believe this film has a great deal that can achieve that.”
