About the Movie : Kerry Wells (Kelsey Sanders), a college journalist and committed Christian with an effervescent personality, has been assigned to do a story on Blake Truman (Logan Bartholomew) the college’s newest and very popular hockey superstar. As a relationship between them begins to develop Kerry finds that Blake, who hides behind a tough and independent façade, is actually struggling through a difficult personal crisis and that he bears the cross of a secret he has kept hidden for years.

I had the opportunity to watch the movie Cowgirls n' Angels' online advance screening last week. The movie is in theaters today (5/25), starring James Cromwell, Bailee Madison , and Jackson Rathbone. Rated PG. About Cowgirls N' Angels: Cowgirls N' Angels is a heartwarming movie that tells the story of Ida, a feisty and rebellious young girl, who has dreams of finding her father, a rodeo rider.
