"What if we were all meant to be together?" Paramount has released an official trailer for an inspiring, feel-good drama titled Mighty Oak, the latest from veteran producer / filmmaker Sean McNamara. In the ensuing years from losing her vocalist brother in a tragic car crash, a young guitar prodigy comes into play - which is left up to speculation that he could be a reincarnation of her late brother. The film tells the story of a band manager who encounters a 10-year-old music prodigy named Oak, played by newcomer Tommy Ragen, a real-life prodigy whose music inspired the screenplay.

What happens when movie theaters have been closed for a pandemic, and studios are skittish about releasing content that might not get seen?
It seems that you get movies that would have otherwise gone direct to video suitable for the whole family(ish) that can play across the nation's few open theater chains and drive-ins.
One such film is Mighty Oak, a flick starring Janel Parrish of Pretty Little Liars fame and a young fellow named Tommy Ragen, a ten-year-old music prodigy and songwriter who can play a mean guitar.
The story of Mighty Oak follows Parrish's character, Gina Jackson aka Jean Jacket, as she works alongside and manages a band -- Army of Love -- fronted by her brother, Vaughn (Levi Dylan) on their quest for fame and fortune.
That rise is hardly meteoric as, on the night of their big break opening for Arcade Fire at the Hollywood Bowl,...
