When ex-Senator, religious fanatic and shameless grifter Rick Santorum isn't rallying around Gubernatorial candidate and fellow-wackjob Ken Cuccinelli, he's busily promoting his new movie.
Produced by EchoLight Studios ('Frothy' Rick is CEO), the film, The Christmas Candle, is set in the fictional English village of Gladbury and is billed as "a timeless holiday film for the entire family" (presumably, as long as that family is 'traditional' in the 'Frothy' Rick/Paul 'Ayn' Ryan mode. It'll be released on 22 November.
According to The Guardian:
Santorum, a devout Catholic, was speaking on the Christian-oriented Trinity Broadcasting Network about the film, and said: "This is a tough business, this is something that we're stepping out ... and the devil, for a long, long time, has had this, these screens, for his playground. And he isn't going to give it up easily."
Santorum also issued a call for the faithful to put their hands in their pockets and pay to see the film and help his business. He said: "I ask for your prayers for me, for our company, for TBN, for all of those involved in The Christmas Candle, and we just want to thank you in advance for everything that you are going to do to help in making this a successful venture."
Ever the optimist, ever the grifter. Let's hope film-goers throw him an anchor.
