Night To Remember

Dove Family-Approved
Suitable for all ages

Synopsis:
Never before in a short film format has music, fashion, 1950’s culture and romance come together so perfectly. This HI-Def, short film musical is brought to you in refreshing new way. Ten songs, recreated, show painstaking detail to 1950’s life. This dialog- free one of a kind DVD brings to life an enriching, emotional and romantic entertainment experience. You will wonder how you ever got along without this “Night to Remember”.

Dove Worldview:
If you love the big band era you will enjoy this musical DVD. Bringing to life the music like they did in old radio shows and the dinner clubs of the 50s, it portrays the days of a more relaxing life, a time when couples went to dinner and enjoyed the talented voices that accompanied the orchestra of the big band and they ate and danced the night away. If you are from the generation that lived during this time like myself, the sounds of the big bands in this DVD are for you.

We award this DVD the Dove “Family-Approved” Seal for all ages.

About Dove

The Challenge for Families

Every day, families across the country face a tough decision, “What movie should we go to see or rent today?” It’s becoming harder and harder to identify a movie that can be enjoyed by the entire family.

Parents and grandparents are crying out for high-quality, wholesome entertainment options for their families. Moms and dads are concerned about the gratuitous sex, violence and anti-family values that their children are exposed to at the movie theaters and on their own video/DVD players.

If only there was assistance enabling families to make intelligent choices concerning the entertainment they allow their children to view. If only moviegoers could identify the true content of a film before plunking down their hard earned dollars. If only Hollywood would recognize that there is a need and market for quality entertainment free from offensive material. Thanks to The Dove Foundation, these desires are becoming a reality.

It’s becoming harder and
harder to identify a movie
that can be enjoyed by
the entire family.

Dove Has the Answer

In 1991 The Dove Foundation began promoting family-friendly entertainment. Our standards and criteria are based on Judeo/Christian values, free from the pressure of commercial interests. We believe in a positive approach of commending high-quality, wholesome movies rather than condemning filmmakers for not meeting those standards.

For years we have watched the morals and attitudes of the entertainment industry slowly creep into our society. We maintain that the number of PG-13 and R rated films, with their increasingly salacious material, are not representative of the desires of millions of movie goers. It’s time for positive family values to impact those in Hollywood instead of Hollywood impacting family values.

“It’s time for positive family
values to impact those in
Hollywood instead of Hollywood
impacting family values.”
- Dick Rolfe Co-Founder & CEO, The Dove Foundation

To encourage and promote the creation,
production, distribution and consumption
of wholesome family entertainment.

Enriching the Lives of Seniors One DVD at a Time

New entertainment is limited for older Americans. With complex dialogue, long run times and unwholesome storylines, many seniors depend on old films and TV shows to pass their time. While most shows are entertaining few provide entertainment and health benefits. With most Americans spending many hours a week watching TV, having it be pleasurable and profitable would be ideal.

Night To Remember, the short film musical made for senior citizens, is a tribute to the years gone by. It provides seniors with quality entertainment that triggers memory and emotion from the best years of their life. Night To Remember is a romantic, nostalgic, experience they can enjoy over and over again. What Mr. Rogers has done for children; Night to Remember could do for the aging population. Petr Janata, associate professor of Psychology at UC Davis center for Mind and Brain commented in a recent article, “What seems to happen is that a piece of familiar music serves as a soundtrack for a mental movie that starts playing in our head. It calls back memories of a particular person or place, and you might all of a sudden see that person’s face in your minds eye,” he continues, “Memory for autobiographically important music seems to be spared in people with Alzheimer’s.

This film is dialogue-free, simple, wholesome and romantic. Included in each set is a DVD and CD soundtrack and ideas about how to incorporate the DVD into the life of seniors all for only $24.99. With the benefits this film provides and the potential health benefits associated with it, giving it to parents and grandparents is a great option. Why not make this Holiday a Night To Remember?

Senior Entertainment Enterprises (SEE) is the most comprehensive resource for the care of older Americans and issues pertaining to aging. By enriching the last years of life, we promote a high quality of life in all of our communities.

Recently, with the launch of our first DVD Night To Remember, we have had the ability to reach out to senior citizens in a way never been done before.

So why is this DVD different?

Currently, there is no new recorded entertainment directly marketed for people later in life. The movies that are put out today and geared toward the general public and consist of too much dialogue, un-wholesome behavior, and fast moving editing and film styles.

Night to Remember is short (35 minutes in length), familiar content presented in a new way, simple, slow, dialogue free and heartwarming. It boasts 10 songs from the early 1950s, revealing what a night out in 1953 would have been like.

All DVDs come with a free cd of all 10 songs featured on the DVD and an idea guide of how to incorporate this into your senior friends life. This is a great gift for your parents or grandparents and also an excellent resource for anyone overseeing the care of a senior citizen. Buy it today for senior homes, senior day care, hospitals, and retirement communities. It is sure to be a hit!
