  1. Interview request:

    Hello Matthew,

    I'm a Christian mom (and Blogger), with two daughters ages 15 and 10. We take our responsibilities as parents very seriously and monitor very closely what our children watch on television. Last year they discovered a movie of yours , "Beauty and the Beast", and have watched it repeatedly. Recently I finally sat down and watched it with them and was really impressed at the Christian adaptation of the movie. The acting was good and the subject matter was very realistic. This, combined with the enthusiam of my girls, led me to explore more of your projects.

    If possible I would like to ask you a few questions that, with your permission, I'd like to post on my site along with a link to your website. I can be contacted at yolandaro12@yahoo.com I have included the questions below.

    Thank you for making television and movie viewing a little more family-friendly!


    1. I've read that you're are Christian. Which, if any, denomination are you affiliated with?

    2. What was it that drew you into an industry that, often times, is not a very positive one?

    3. Do you feel that, being in this industry, has compromised your Christianity in anyway?

    4. For all the single girls out there: Are you married?

    5. I read that you are the father of two children. How difficult is it simultaneously being in the public eye and keeping them spiritually grounded?

    6. Are there any further Christan projects in the works

    7. I've noticed you have a film, " The Guardians", in pre-preduction status. Can you tell us about it, and the release date?

  2. Thank you for the comment on my blog... and visiting my website (matthewreesefilms.com)
    I'd be happy to answer some of your questions...

    1. I've read that you're are Christian. Which, if any, denomination are you affiliated with?
    I am a Christian and belong to "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints", and make Christ and his teachings the center of my life.

    2. What was it that drew you into an industry that, often times, is not a very positive one?
    I entered the industry as an Executive Producer with a film I have not yet released called "Tears of a King"...Good stories can be created and told in a way that is uplifting and deliver good messages. There are other sides to this industry, yet there are "other sides" to every industry. As a producer, I am able to choose the films I make.

    3. Do you feel that, being in this industry, has compromised your Christianity in anyway?
    I do not feel it's "compromised my Christianity", because again, the stories and rolls I choose, are up to me.

    4. For all the single girls out there: Are you married?
    Single

    5. I read that you are the father of two children. How difficult is it simultaneously being in the public eye and keeping them spiritually grounded?
    Public Eye or not, we wake, we get ready for school, we go about our day as all people do. We allow good or bad things into our lives as people... I believe that regardless of what one chooses as a profession, one can choose good habits that contribute to the overall goodness of life, or bad habits that are destructive and hindering to the spirit of God within us all. My kids and I enjoy a lot of fun family time, and participate in good things that strengthen character, and our family relationship. Making movies isn't who I am... It's only what I do. Who I am, goes far beyond the film world... :)

    6. Are there any further Christan projects in the works?
    Further Christian projects...? I have a few things in the works... There's been talk of a sequel to "Beauty and The Beast"... Other films are in script format right now, that are being considered...Nothing to officially announce though :)

    7. I've noticed you have a film, " The Guardians", in pre-preduction status. Can you tell us about it, and the release date?

    The Guardians, will be filmed and shot towards the end of 2010... There will be at least a year worth of post production work on it, due to the technical nature of the film... After that, we will see when the best time slot will be for its release... Hoping for early 2012...:)

    The film industry is fun, yet it's just like anything else... You have to create a product that people will buy, and refer to others. One must consider the end-line buyer, as they start at the beginning. So many films are made, and not seen because a lot of film makers are creating as the artist, but they don't remember the consumer in the creative process. If it's to be profitable, then they must create a film that an audience wants to buy. Not always easy...but very doable. Thank you for the interest... My Best to you and yours'!

      recently watched beauty and the beast was really great. The movie highlights the power of the leading of how God still leads in your life and through tribulation God still blesses .
      Thank you !

  5. Matthew, I have watched Beauty and the Beast many times now. You draw people in this role because of something you have that most actors don't. Sincerity. Even though it was a role, you shined through with your true self, your God, your genuine feelings, all the emotions we all have yet have to carry on to another day. So I finally researched you and happy to say I wasn't wrong. YOU are the real thing - Thank-you for helping me through dark times without even knowing you did<

  6. Gooday Mate, I've just finished watching Belle and Beast again, love the movie. My new goal and prayer is to watch a Christian movie when I sit down watch to a movie instead off the usual mmm rubbish on TV. Was looking to see what over movies you where in, when I realized your name was Mathew Davis in Belle an Beast, and movie Overcome is also released as Turn Around, and Stephanie Wood is now called Summer Naomi Smart. Just wondering on the reasons why change of movie names and actual names if you don't mind bro. Cheers Brian

  10. Bought Belle And The Beast on DVD. Found it by accident on Amazon. What a wonderful Christian movie! This would be perfect for UP TV channel. Wish we had more movies like this to watch. Christians are finding it difficult to find decent entertainment these days. Thanks so much for this movie!
