The faith-based film “Ordinary Angels” finished in third place again at the box office over the weekend, raking in more than $13 million so far.
The Lionsgate and Kingdom Story Company film, which is based on real-life events, was released in theaters on February 23, playing in 3,200 venues. It made approximately $6.5 million by the end of its first weekend and has more than doubled its take since then.
The movie tells the story of small town alcoholic hairdresser, played by Hilary Swank, who has her faith renewed when she meets a widower who is working hard to provide for his two daughters, one of whom is battling a critical illness and is in dire need of a liver transplant.
Swank’s character Sharon Stevens pours everything she has into raising funds to help the little girl receive a liver transplant.
“It’s a feel-good movie and a reminder of the impact and change we can make in another’s life. We don’t have to be perfect to do it. We don’t have to have all our stuff together. We can be imperfect, flawed human beings and still see another person in need and be of service and really find our purpose through that,” Swank told CBN News.
