The timing of the April 26th release of Unsung Hero in movie theaters makes it the perfect movie to watch in celebration of Mother’s Day. Unsung Hero tells the story of a family who made it in America against all odds thanks to their faith and determination. I thought this movie would center around the early days of the Christian music duo FOR KING+COUNTRY, but it actually starts way before that chapter of this family’s life. My family saw a FOR KING+COUNTRY concert not too long ago, and it was quite amazing. (I would highly recommend seeing them in concert if you ever have the chance).
Joel Smallbone plays the role of his father, David Smallbone, a music producer who risks it all to move his six children and his pregnant wife from Australia to the United States. I remember seeing Joel Smallbone recently in Journey to Bethlehem, and I can tell that his future in acting is bright (hopefully he continues with his music career as well).
I had no idea that Rebecca St. James grew up as part of the Smallbone family. Unsung Hero largely centers around her rocky start in the music industry. I remember liking her music back in the day (ah, the ’90s)!
However, the title Unsung Hero deservedly goes to the matriarch of the Smallbone family, Helen (played by Daisy Betts). Her strength in holding her family together through their darkest days is inspiring and uplifting. Unsung Hero is a movie that will inspire families everywhere.
