Warner gives us “The Good Lie” for Christmas


Buy on Amazon

Warner Brothers Home Entertainment has just added The Good Lie to is roster of releases, scheduling a Blu-Ray Combo Pack for release just before Christmas.

They were known simply as “The Lost Boys.”
 
Orphaned by the brutal civil war in Sudan, which began in 1983, these young victims traveled as many as a thousand miles on foot in search of safety. Fifteen years later, a humanitarian effort would bring 3,600 lost boys, as well as girls, to America.
 
Mamere and Theo are sons of the Chief in their village in Southern Sudan. When an attack by the Northern militia destroys their home and kills their parents, eldest son Theo is forced to assume the role of Chief and lead a group of young survivors, including his sister Abital, away from harm. But the hostile, treacherous terrain has other dangers in store for them. As the tattered group makes the difficult trek to Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya, they meet other fleeing children, forging a bond with Jeremiah, who, at 13, is already a man of faith, and Paul, whose skills become essential to their survival. 
 
Thirteen years later, the now young adults are given the opportunity to leave the camp and resettle in America. Upon arriving in Kansas, they are met by Carrie Davis (Reese Witherspoon), an employment agency counselor who has been enlisted to help find them jobs—no easy task, when things like light switches and telephones are brand new to them. 
 
Although Carrie has successfully kept herself from any emotional entanglements, these refugees, who desperately require help navigating the 21st century and rebuilding their shattered lives, need just that. So Carrie embarks on her own unchartered territory, enlisting the help of her boss, Jack (Corey Stoll).

Aside from the movie itself, “The Good Lie” Blu-Ray Combo Pack also contain a selection of Deleted Scenes as well as the Featurette ”The Good Lie Journey”.

“The Good Lie” will be in stores on December 23 and can be yours to experience as a Blu-Ray combo Disc with DVD and DigitalHD for only $26.04.
