What is your favorite Kieth Merrill film commissoned by the Church?
Academy Award-winning director Kieth Merrill has made a ton of great documentaries (Amazon; The Great American Cowboy; The Witness; Olympic Glory; Yellowstone; Grand Canyon: The Hidden Secrets; and many more). Plus there are his feature films, such as "Windwalker", "Harry's War" and "Three Warriors." It would be impossible to pick a favorite. So we'll make the task easier, asking which of his Church-commissioned films is your favorite: the Meso-american epic "The Testaments of One Fold and One Shepherd", the pioneer film "Legacy", or the lovable "Mr. Krueger's Christmas" starring Jimmy Stewart.

He is one of the greatest writers of our time. And one of the greatest writers of any genre, any language, on any planet.

Someday. But what other Card book would you like to see made into a movie?
