Modeling himself after Ronald Reagan, Rick Santorum says he hopes his new role as CEO of EchoLight Studios will help him become “a little better storyteller.”
The Redemption of Henry Myers is the second movie released by the company with Santorum in charge (the first was a holiday option called The Christmas Candle.) It airs on Sunday on the Hallmark Movie Channel, but curious viewers can check out a preview, below:
Selling movies is as tough as gaining voters, Santorum says, but, “if you have a good product, that helps a lot. We felt like we have a good product with our films and obviously I felt we have a pretty good product with me.”
