Old Rugged Cross (2016) dives into the intricate world of small-town church politics, where Pastor Luke Wolfe aims to consolidate the local faith community with his ambitious plans. The atmosphere is heavy with tension as he not only attempts to reshape the spiritual landscape but also tries to win over the charming church pianist in a rather convoluted love story. The pacing has its ups and downs, mirroring the emotional rollercoaster of the characters. Performances range from earnest to a bit melodramatic, which adds an interesting layer to the narrative. The practical effects are minimal but serve their purpose, keeping the focus on dialogue and character development. The film grapples with themes of ambition versus community, making it a curious watch for those interested in character-driven dramas.
