Set between the two world wars,Milltown Pride is a great movie taking a wannabe baseball player from the good side of the tracks across the tracks to play ball for the mill workers team. There he finds his families preconceived notions of mill people are not accurate. But he also finds some of the perceptions true as he succumbs to peer pressure. After hitting bottom, he finally sees himself for what he truly is, he humbles himself before God and finds restoration in those he has harmed.
Some of the dialogue is a bit stilted, but the cinema photography is outstanding. Very similar in theme to the other films by Unusual Films it seems to struggle to meet the high expectations of this viewer, but is still a great family film.
