Metro Detroit-based best-selling author keeps it local, bringing in Laurence Fishburne, Martin Landau, Bradley Whitford and other stars to the Emagine theater tonight.
Mitch Albom committed to making the movie, Have A Little Faith, based on his best-selling book of the same name, as local as possible. So he insisted on filming in Detroit – where a large part of the story is focused – and bringing in the stars for a red carpet premiere tonight at the Royal Oak Emagine. “It’s important to put your projects where your mouth is,” said Albom, an outspoken advocate of Michigan’s film incentives.

Here's a sample from the comments: "Faith sustains in the face of loss and tragedy and strengthens in times of fear and uncertainty. It inflates balloons with joy in celebrations of love and friendship and family and discovery. Faith flourishes when shared but becomes strongest by far when exercised together with those who seek to do His will for those whom He loves most." - Mary Benedetto "Faith-based community services are the best way to match donated time, talent, and treasures with those …
