"The Blind," A Film Based on Phil Robertson's Story, Grosses Nearly $16M at Box Office
The Blind is now the most successful release in the history of Fathom Events, as the faith-based feature has grossed $15.7 million at the North American box office. Fathom's previous record holder was episodes one and two of the third season of The Chosen which had grossed around $14.6 million at the box office.
The Blind is Fathom's first to see a longer theatrical run than its traditional event cinema releases. Originally slated for an eight-day run as part of Fathom's new specialty distribution model, it was extended twice, Fathom said, and held a steady position in the top 10 for the duration of its more than three weeks in cinemas.
Long before Phil Robertson became a reality TV star, he fell in love with Miss Kay and started a family, but his demons threatened to tear their lives apart. Set in the backwoods swamps of 1960s Louisiana, The Blind shares never-before-revealed moments in Phil's life as he seeks to conquer the shame of his past, ultimately finding redemption in an unlikely place. This stunning cinematic journey chronicles the love story that launched a dynasty, the turmoil that nearly brought it crashing down, and the hope that rose from the ashes to create a foundation for generations to come.
The Blind features a talented ensemble cast, including Aron von Andrian (DODGER), Amelia Eve (THE HAUNTING OF BLY MANOR), Brielle Robillard ("The Lake"), Matthew Erick White (Station 19), and is directed by Andrew Hyatt (PAUL, APOSTLE OF CHRIST; FULL OF GRACE). The film powerfully conveys the message that no one is beyond the reach of God's grace, and no one is so far gone that they cannot turn their life around.
