The Shunning ~ DVD review and GIVEAWAY!

9/21/2011

56 Comments

     As a five-year-old, traveling briefly through Amish country with my parents, I began to be fascinated with the Amish.

     At first, I was merely curious about the way they lived without electricity, and the type of transportation they choose to use (horse and buggy). 

     As an adult, though, I've become more fascinated by their staunch devotion to their religious beliefs and how they raise their children.  I've also learned that some Amish groups use electricity - that some groups are more strict than other groups.

     While I don't know any Amish people personally, I do know some families who live in some ways similarly to the Amish:  headcoverings for the women, dark or muted colored clothing, young women who stay home until they are married, very close family bonds.

    The Shunning is a Hallmark film that has now been released onto DVD, and I was honored to be able to receive a copy to watch with my family. 

     I'm probably supposed to give you the basic story line, but I feel like that would ruin the movie for you.  What I will  tell you, though, is that there are secrets in the Amish world, just like in our world.  And a long-kept secret begins to be unraveled in a way that is very hurtful and confusing to one Amish family.

    The Shunning is based on the celebrated first novel of the best-selling "The Heritage of Lancaster County" book series from author Beverly Lewis, which has already sold over one million copies.

     In real life, author Beverly Lewis's grandmother was shunned, and Beverly heard bits and pieces of the story as she grew and matured into adulthood.  Some of the story may be a part of this amazing film!

     We enjoyed watching The Shunning so much that we took it on vacation with us and viewed it a second time with my parents.  They enjoyed it as well!  The acting is impeccable, and the story line drew us in like a fish on a hook.  Wow!

     This is a wonderful movie to use with your children in explaining how wrong choices and secrets will always be discovered - and have negative consequences.

    

The Shunning stars Danielle Panabaker, Bill Oberst Jr., Sherry Stringfield and Burgess Jenkins, and it was directed by Michael Landon Jr., who has also directed the "Love Comes Softly" series of movies.

     You can learn more about The Shunning at the Hallmark Channel, and on their Facebook page.  You can also watch an additional movie trailer HERE. 

I've been provided with an additional copy of
"The Shunning" to give away to one of my readers!

I too have been interested in learning more about the Amish. I recently watched a documentary that dealt with the time period when they let their youth (18 year olds) go out and "experience" the world before coming back to join the community. I find it fascinating that they would allow this and while I see how this solidifies their beliefs, I wonder if they can ever go "too far" during their free period where they wouldn't be accepted back in. Plus, the idea of having a community where some of the young people are living lives outside of the rest of the communities beliefs....I just don't see how that works.

I've always been interested in how the Amish live their life. My first in-depth exposure was in a Nancy Drew book as a young girl. I think this would be a great movie to show at our church's first Monday movie night.

I have wondered how the Amish have been able to maintain their culture amid growing technology etc. I have always wanted to visit an Amish community and would love to do so in the fall and see how they make preparations for winter.

I love the Amish as I lived around them for six years of my life when I was a little girl. They have always been a favorite thing in my life. I would love to learn how they wash and dry all their clothes in the winter because it is so cold in the places they live and I don't think they do it indoors. It seems there would be do clothes to do it that way! I do believe they hang them but how do they get them to dry in the cold?

I'd love to learn more about what they do for entertainment. I can't imagine life without internet, for example - the simple life would be interesting to observe.

I'd like to know what happens if they don't marry. Do they live with their parents the rest of their life? Or are they forced into marriage eventually?

Maybe they dry their clothes in the winter the Alaskan Eskimo way: hang the wet clothes out on the clothesline. Allow them to freeze. Then, beat the ice out of them. It works!

I am interested in Amish people's theological beliefs. Do they believe they are saved by living a holy life? Do they use the Bible as we do?

I too, would like to know about their beliefs. There is so much controversy over their way of life but the only thing that matters is that they know "THE WAY TO LIFE" - Jesus!

Wonder how they can actually shun a member of the family

As my life seems to get more and more hectic, I look at the Amish people and how they seem to have stepped out of time and wonder "HOW DO THEY DO IT"?!

I just recently finished a book review/giveaway called "Seasons" By Elizabeth Byler Younts and it was so interesting. The author recounted the true story of her grandmother growing up in the amish culture. Her daughter left the amish community and was shunned and I would really like to know more about the reasoning behind this. Thanks for this opportunity!

I find their lifestyle intriguing and would love to learn more about their simplistic lifestyle and what it would be like to grow up in their community. I think the media often presents a negative view of them and yet I remember a few years ago when a devastating tragedy happened in their community, they showed they were a forgiving and grace filled community!

I find the Amish way of life very fascinating. I would love to know how those women get so much done in a days time, and with so many children to watch after.

you know, what I would like more than anything is to learn the self-reliance (or community-reliance) skills that the Amish seem to know. Making use of everything.
