"Up In Smoke Productions, LLC" presents "The Little Drummer Boy - The Movie". We are seeking "financial angels/backers" and/or donations to produce this film. The story is about "Jimmy," a little boy during the 1980's, who is invited by the Virgin Mary through his friendly guardian angel, to witness the miracle birth of Jesus Christ in a cold cave at Bethlehem. "Up In Smoke Productions, LLC" is a new Catholic film ministry based on the treasures of the Catholic faith!

"Noel" by Sarah McLachlan - Another Musical Score In Film
We are working on getting copyright access for the use of Sarah McLachlan's wonderful rendition of "Noel" to be used as one of the musical scores in the film. The score will be used in the scene where the Angel of Light, amidst the Nine Choirs of Angels, points Jimmy in the direction to the poor manger of Christ.
This beautiful rendition is perfect for the scene in which "Jimmy" the Little Drummer Boy character, afraid and cold in the frosty winter night, runs and falls over an old leather drum left by a shepherd. Discovering this treasure, he takes it up and desperately tries to keep up with the three Wise Men who have passed him on the narrow path to the cave of Christ's miraculous birth!
Listen to the score in the YouTube below!

Beautiful Concept for The Christmas Spirit
(Copied with much appreciation from the blogspot link "Young Fogeys")...
With the brouhaha over the billboard by the Lincoln Tunnel, atheism has been in the news lately. Father Cantalamessa's recent Advent meditation for the Holy Father and the Papal Household, titled, "The Christian Answer to Atheist Scientism", has a great passage:
There are nocturnal birds, such as the owl and the little owl, whose eye is made to see in the dark of night, not in the day. The light of the sun would blind them. These birds know everything and move at ease in the nocturnal world, but know nothing of the daytime world. Let us adopt for the moment the genre of the fable, where the animals speak among themselves. Lets suppose that an eagle makes friends with a family of little owls and speaks to them of the sun: of how it illuminates everything, of how, without it, everything would fall into darkness and cold, of how their nocturnal world itself would not exist without the sun. What would the little owl answer other than: "What you say is nonsense! I've never seen your sun. We move very well and get our food without it; your sun is a useless theory and therefore it doesn't exist."
It is exactly what the atheist scientist does when he says: "God doesn't exist." He judges a world he does not know, applies his laws to an object that is beyond their scope. To see God one must open a different eye, one must venture outside the night. In this connection, still valid is the ancient affirmation of the Psalmist "The fool says: there is no God."

A QUOTE FROM MOTHER ANGELICA
Here is a quote from Raymond Arroyo's book on Mother Angelica titled "Little Book of Life Lessons and Everyday Spirituality." I think it's a perfect quote for the intentions of this little film company and for all the people wanting to become involved in it:
"ONE PERSON"
"Everything starts with one person. God loves to work with weak people -- like David, a little teenager with a slingshot defeated the fearsome Goliath. Gideon with only three hundred men saved the Jewish people from slaughter and slavery. I don't care if you're five or one hundred and five, God from all eternity chose you to be where you are, at this time in history to change the world!"
Mother Angelica also quoted this, which I've made my personal motto:
"You must be willing to do the ridiculous, so God can do the miraculous"!
With the help of people like you, this little Catholic film company will be able to produce spiritually based Catholic films, which the world needs so desperately now. Please give what you can or contact us at upinsmokeproductions@hotmail.com to become involved with this project!
God bless you all!
